EQUIPMENT RENTAL AGREEMENT — TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Version 2026-09-17

Read this Agreement carefully. It applies to every rental, sale, and service Shine Cine provides to you, now and in the future, until it is replaced by a later version. You must scroll through the entire Agreement before you can accept it online.

1. Parties and How This Agreement Works

1.1 Parties. This Equipment Rental Agreement (the "Agreement") is between Shinyboard LLC, a Texas limited liability company doing business as Shine Cine ("Shine Cine," "we," or "us"), and the customer identified in the Rental Account Application or on the Rental Order ("Customer" or "you"). Shine Cine is the lessor and Customer is the lessee of the Equipment.

1.2 What makes up the contract. Each rental is governed by (a) this Agreement, (b) Customer's approved Rental Account Application, and (c) the quote, reservation, rental order, pickup sheet, delivery ticket, or invoice for that rental (each a "Rental Order"). Together these form the "Rental Contract." If a Rental Order conflicts with this Agreement, the Rental Order controls only as to items, dates, quantities, and prices. This Agreement controls everything else.

1.3 Continuing agreement. This Agreement stays in effect for all current and future Rental Orders, sales, and services until Shine Cine posts a later version under Section 30. You do not need to sign again for each rental. Placing a Rental Order, taking delivery, or allowing anyone to pick up Equipment on your account is acceptance of the version of this Agreement in effect on that date.

1.4 Electronic acceptance. Customer agrees that electronic acceptance of this Agreement and of any Rental Order (including a click-to-agree, typed name, or electronic signature, and the audit record Shine Cine keeps of it) is a valid, binding signature under the Texas Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (Tex. Bus. & Com. Code ch. 322) and federal law, and that Shine Cine's electronic records of the Rental Contract are admissible evidence of its terms.

1.5 Authorized representatives. Every person Customer lists as authorized to rent, and every person Customer sends to pick up, receive, or return Equipment, is Customer's "Authorized Representative." Their signatures, acknowledgments, add-ons, and instructions bind Customer. Shine Cine may release Equipment to an Authorized Representative or to any person who presents Customer's Rental Order and identifies themselves as acting for Customer. Customer must notify Shine Cine in writing to remove a person from the authorized list. Until then, Customer remains responsible for that person's rentals.

1.6 Applications and credit. Customer represents that all information in its Rental Account Application is true and complete and will update Shine Cine in writing of any change in ownership, legal name, address, insurance, or financial condition. Shine Cine may check credit, references, and identity, may decline or limit any rental, and may change payment terms at any time based on that information.

2. Definitions

• "Equipment" means every item Shine Cine rents, lends, or provides to Customer under a Rental Order, including cameras, lenses, lighting, grip, electrical distribution, generators, camera support, dollies, wireless and monitoring systems, audio and communications gear, cases, cables, accessories, batteries, media, production supplies, and vehicles (Sprinter vans, two-ton and three-ton trucks, and any trailer). Equipment includes items Shine Cine owns, items consigned to Shine Cine by third-party owners, and items Shine Cine subrents from other rental houses for Customer's order.
• "Rental Period" begins when Equipment leaves Shine Cine's premises or is released to Customer, its Authorized Representative, or its carrier (including delivery to a location Customer designates), and ends when Shine Cine checks the Equipment back in at its premises.
• "Published Rates" means Shine Cine's standard daily rental rates as shown on shinecine.com or in Shine Cine's rental system on the date of the Rental Order, before any Project Savings, Package Rate, Account Terms, Extended Rental Pricing, or other pricing adjustment.
• "Replacement Cost" means the current price to buy the same item new from the manufacturer or an authorized dealer, or if the item is no longer made, the nearest comparably equipped current model, plus shipping, tax, and any custom fitting or matching costs, with no deduction for depreciation, age, or condition. Shine Cine states the Replacement Cost of the Equipment on the quote or Rental Order on request.
• "Loss of Use" means the rental income Shine Cine loses while Equipment is late, missing, under repair, or being replaced, calculated at Published Rates as provided in Section 11.

3. Prep, Inspection, and Acceptance

3.1 Prep in our bays. Shine Cine provides dedicated prep bays so Customer can build, test, and verify its package before the shoot. A scheduled prep day is provided at no rental charge when the prep takes place in Shine Cine's prep bays and is reserved in advance on the Rental Order. Equipment that leaves the premises on a prep day starts the billable Rental Period on that day.

3.2 Customer inspection. Customer or its Authorized Representative is responsible for inspecting and testing all Equipment during prep, at pickup, or immediately upon delivery. By taking Equipment from Shine Cine's premises or accepting delivery, Customer acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to inspect and test the Equipment, that the Equipment is complete as listed on the Rental Order, and that it is in good working order and acceptable for Customer's intended use.

3.3 Shortages and defects. Any missing item, incorrect item, or defect must be reported to Shine Cine as soon as it is discovered, and in every case before the Equipment leaves Shine Cine's premises or, for delivered orders, within four (4) hours after delivery. After that, the Equipment is deemed received complete and in good condition, and any damage or shortage found at check-in is Customer's responsibility.

3.4 Operator issues and technical support. No rental reduction or credit will be given because Customer or its crew could not operate properly functioning Equipment, or because Equipment was not used. Shine Cine will provide reasonable phone support during business hours at no charge. Technical support calls outside business hours, site visits, and time spent troubleshooting operator-related problems may be billed at Shine Cine's then-current service rate, currently $95 per hour plus travel.

3.5 Malfunction during the rental. If an item of Equipment stops working during the Rental Period through no fault of Customer, Customer must notify Shine Cine immediately and, at Customer's expense, return the item for exchange. Shine Cine will, at its option, repair or replace the item with the same or a comparable item if one is available, or credit the rental charge for that item for the time it could not be used. This exchange or credit is Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for any Equipment defect or failure. It does not relieve Customer of responsibility for damage, loss, or non-return.

4. No Warranties

THE EQUIPMENT IS RENTED "AS IS" AND "WITH ALL FAULTS." SHINE CINE MAKES NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT THE EQUIPMENT WILL BE SUITABLE FOR CUSTOMER'S PRODUCTION, COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER EQUIPMENT, FREE FROM DEFECTS, OR WILL OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OR ERROR. SHINE CINE'S RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT EQUIPMENT, PACKAGES, POWER, RIGGING, OR WORKFLOW ARE PROVIDED AS A COURTESY AND DO NOT CREATE A WARRANTY. CUSTOMER'S SOLE REMEDY FOR ANY EQUIPMENT DEFECT IS THE EXCHANGE OR CREDIT DESCRIBED IN SECTION 3.5.

5. Rental Period, Rates, and Returns

5.1 Rental days. Rates are quoted per rental day as shown on the Rental Order. The first billable day is the day Equipment is released to Customer, unless that day is a scheduled in-house prep day under Section 3.1. The last billable day is the scheduled return day. Equipment must be returned by 10:00 AM on the return date shown on the Rental Order, or by the time stated on the Rental Order if different.

5.2 Extended pricing. Where the Rental Order states Extended Rental Pricing (for example, a three-day week or a three-week month), that pricing applies only to the dates on the Rental Order. Days beyond the Rental Order are billed at Published Rates.

5.3 Late returns. Equipment returned after the return time is billed at Published Rates for each additional day or partial day until checked in, without any Project Savings, Package Rate, or Extended Rental Pricing, plus any Loss of Use and costs Shine Cine incurs because the Equipment was committed to another customer. Customer must request an extension before the return time. Extensions are subject to availability and are not effective until Shine Cine confirms them in writing.

5.4 No allowance for non-use. No credit or refund is given because Equipment was not used, weather or schedules changed, or a production was cancelled or shortened after the Rental Period began.

5.5 Shoot days, weekends, and holidays. Equipment is billed by shoot days used or by the total time out, as stated on the Rental Order. On a daily schedule, weekends and holidays are billed as rental days when the Equipment is used. Extended Rental Pricing already accounts for weekends within the rental. After-hours pickup or return is billed as stated on the Rental Order or in Shine Cine's published policies.

6. Reservations, Holds, and Cancellation

6.1 Reservations. A reservation is confirmed only when Shine Cine confirms it in writing and any required deposit, insurance certificate, and account approval are in place. Quotes and holds do not reserve Equipment until confirmed.

6.2 Cancellation. Customer may cancel a confirmed Rental Order at no charge by written notice received more than 24 hours before the scheduled pickup or delivery time. Cancellations received 24 hours or less before pickup or delivery are subject to a cancellation fee of 50% of the Rental Order's rental charges. Orders cancelled after Equipment has been released or delivered are billed at a half-day rate (66% of one day at the Rental Order rate) for one-day rentals and a minimum of one full day for multi-day rentals, plus any delivery charges incurred.

6.3 Subrentals, vehicles, and large packages. Subrented Equipment, any Equipment shipped or flown in for Customer's order, vehicles, any item Shine Cine purchases, modifies, or holds specifically for Customer, and any Rental Order with rental charges over $2,500 at Published Rates require written cancellation at least 72 hours before pickup or delivery. Cancellations inside that window are billed the greater of the fee in Section 6.2 or the actual charges the third-party rental house, shipper, or carrier imposes on Shine Cine, plus any other non-recoverable costs. Inbound and return freight on Equipment brought in for Customer's order is billed to Customer whether or not the order is cancelled.

6.4 Keep us informed. Telling Shine Cine early about schedule changes lets us re-release Equipment and reduce or waive cancellation fees. Waivers are at Shine Cine's discretion and must be in writing.

7. Delivery, Pickup, and Shipping

7.1 Transfer of risk. Risk of loss passes to Customer when Equipment is released to Customer, its Authorized Representative, or its carrier, or when Equipment is unloaded at the location Customer designates, whether or not Customer's representative is present. Customer must have an Authorized Representative present to receive, count, and sign for delivered Equipment. If no one is present, Shine Cine may, at Customer's risk and direction, leave the Equipment at the location, or return it and bill the delivery and a redelivery charge.

7.2 Delivery charges. Delivery, pickup, wait time over fifteen minutes, stairs or long carries, after-hours service, and re-delivery are billed as stated on the Rental Order or at Shine Cine's published rates. Shine Cine drivers are not responsible for setup, rigging, or operating Equipment unless a technician is separately booked.

7.3 Shipping. Equipment shipped to or returned from Customer must be shipped in its original cases, fully insured for Replacement Cost, with tracking, and with all shipping charges prepaid by Customer. Shine Cine may refuse collect shipments. Equipment is considered returned only when it is received and checked in at Shine Cine's premises.

7.4 Packing. Customer must return Equipment clean, dry, coiled, and packed in the cases and configuration in which it was received. Shine Cine may bill labor at its service rate for repacking, sorting, untangling, or cleaning beyond normal check-in.

8. Care, Use, and Custody of Equipment

8.1 Custody. Customer will keep the Equipment in its sole care, custody, and control, at its own expense, in the same condition as received, ordinary wear excepted. Customer will not sublease, lend, or assign the Equipment or this Agreement, or let anyone other than its qualified employees and agents use it, without Shine Cine's prior written consent.

8.2 Qualified crew. Equipment may be operated only by people with a thorough working knowledge of that item. Customer is responsible for the acts and omissions of everyone who handles the Equipment while it is in Customer's custody.

8.3 Compliance with law. Customer will use the Equipment only for lawful purposes and in compliance with all federal, state, and local laws, permits, union and safety rules, and manufacturer instructions, and will pay and indemnify Shine Cine against any fines, penalties, tolls, citations, or forfeitures arising from its use.

8.4 No alterations. Customer will not open, modify, repair, re-cable, change firmware or settings that require a password, remove or cover Shine Cine ownership labels, barcodes, or serial numbers, or allow anyone other than Shine Cine or its approved service center to repair the Equipment.

8.5 Hazardous conditions require written approval. Unless Shine Cine approves in writing in advance, Customer will not use or expose the Equipment (a) in or over water, on boats, or in rain, snow, or extreme heat or cold without adequate protection; (b) in sand, dust, mud, salt air, smoke, haze, fog, or other atmospheric effects; (c) around pyrotechnics, fire, weapons, blanks, or stunts; (d) mounted on or in a moving vehicle, aircraft, drone, crane, cable system, or overhead rig; (e) in any location outside the State of Texas; or (f) in any manner outside the manufacturer's intended use. Approval may include additional charges, deposit, or insurance requirements. Customer is responsible for all resulting cleaning, repair, or replacement whether or not approval was obtained.

8.6 Cleaning. Equipment returned with atmospheric residue, dust, sand, water, tape residue, paint, or other contamination will be cleaned by Shine Cine or its service center at Customer's expense, and Loss of Use applies while it is out of service.

8.7 Secure storage. Customer will store Equipment in a secure, locked location. Equipment left in a vehicle must be out of sight in a locked vehicle, and vehicles containing Equipment may not be left unattended overnight except in a secured, locked facility. Customer bears the full risk of theft from vehicles, whether attended or unattended.

8.8 Travel outside Texas or the United States. Equipment may not leave Texas without written approval, and may not leave the United States without written approval, a customs manifest or carnet arranged and paid for by Customer, and any additional insurance Shine Cine requires. Delays caused by customs or Customer's failure to register Equipment are billed as rental days.

8.9 Inspection. Shine Cine may inspect the Equipment at any reasonable time where it is located, with reasonable notice when practical, and Customer will give Shine Cine access for that purpose.

9. Vehicles: Sprinter, Two-Ton, and Three-Ton Truck Packages

This Section applies when the Rental Order includes a vehicle. Vehicles are Equipment for all purposes of this Agreement, and this Section adds to, and does not replace, the other Sections.

9.1 Drivers. Vehicles may be driven only by drivers who are at least 21 years old, hold a valid driver's license appropriate for the vehicle, are listed on the Rental Order or otherwise approved by Shine Cine in writing, and have no license suspension, DUI or DWI, or reckless-driving conviction within the past five years. Shine Cine may require a copy of each driver's license and a motor vehicle record before release. Customer is responsible for all acts of every driver, whether or not approved.

9.2 Fuel. Vehicles are released with the fuel level noted on the Rental Order and must be returned at that level or higher. If a vehicle is returned below that level, Customer will pay for the fuel at the local pump price plus a $35 refueling service fee.

9.3 Mileage. Each rented day includes 50 miles. Miles beyond the allowance for the Rental Period are billed at $1.38 per mile, based on the odometer readings recorded at release and return.

9.4 Tolls, citations, and fees. Customer is responsible for all tolls and toll-authority administrative fees, including NTTA charges; all parking, traffic, red-light, weight, and equipment citations; and any impound, towing, or storage charges arising during the Rental Period. Shine Cine bills each toll, citation, or fee it receives at the amount charged plus a $25 administrative fee per item. Customer authorizes Shine Cine to provide Customer's and the driver's information to any toll authority, law enforcement agency, or court to transfer liability for tolls and citations, and to charge Customer's card on file for these amounts.

9.5 Damage. Customer is responsible for all damage to the vehicle including tires, glass, mirrors, lift gate, interior, shelving, and any damage from overhead clearance strikes, backing, loading, or improper securing of cargo, and for cleaning if the vehicle is returned with trash, spills, or debris.

9.6 Prohibited uses. Vehicles may not be used to tow, carry passengers in the cargo area, carry hazardous materials other than production fuel and expendables in approved containers, travel off paved roads, leave Texas without written approval, or be operated by anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Vehicles may not be driven with the lift gate down or the roll-up door open.

9.7 Accidents and breakdowns. Customer must report any accident, theft, vandalism, or damage to Shine Cine within 24 hours and to police immediately where required, obtain a police report, and not admit fault or negotiate with third parties on Shine Cine's behalf. Customer may not have the vehicle repaired without Shine Cine's approval. If a vehicle becomes disabled through no fault of Customer, Shine Cine will use reasonable efforts to provide a replacement but is not liable for any resulting production delay or cost.

9.8 Insurance for vehicles. Before release of any vehicle, Customer must provide a certificate showing Hired and Non-Owned Auto Liability coverage of at least $1,000,000 combined single limit naming Shinyboard LLC DBA Shine Cine as additional insured, and Hired Auto Physical Damage (comprehensive and collision) coverage of at least $55,000 per vehicle, or the full actual cash value of the vehicle if greater, naming Shine Cine as loss payee, unless Shine Cine agrees in writing to another arrangement such as an additional deposit. Equipment carried in the vehicle must be covered by the rented-equipment coverage in Section 12, without any unattended-vehicle exclusion. Auto coverage is required only when a vehicle is on the Rental Order.

9.9 Telematics. Customer acknowledges that vehicles and high-value Equipment may carry GPS or telematics devices, and consents to Shine Cine's collection and use of location and operating data to protect its property.

9.10 Taxes on vehicle rentals. Customer will pay any Texas motor vehicle gross rental receipts tax or other tax that applies to the vehicle portion of a Rental Order, in addition to sales tax on other Equipment.

10. Generators, Distribution, Lighting, and Electrical Equipment

10.1 Qualified electrical crew. Customer is solely responsible for having a qualified gaffer, electrician, or generator operator plan and perform all electrical work, including load calculation, cable sizing and runs, grounding and bonding, GFCI protection, generator placement and exhaust, wet-location protection, tie-ins, and compliance with the National Electrical Code and local rules. Shine Cine's staff may describe how Equipment is designed to be used but do not design, approve, or supervise Customer's electrical installation.

10.2 Damage from power. Shine Cine is not responsible for damage to Customer's or any third party's equipment, property, or data caused by power quality, overload, miswiring, generator failure, or use of Equipment with power sources Shine Cine did not provide.

10.3 Fuel, run time, and consumables. Generators are released with the fuel level noted on the Rental Order and must be returned at that level, or fuel at the local pump price plus a $35 refueling service fee will be billed. Generator rental days are based on the Rental Order; run-hour limits, if any, are stated on the Rental Order. Customer will pay for all consumables, including fuel, gels, diffusion, tape, and expendables, and for any fuel spill cleanup or environmental damage.

10.4 Lamps, globes, and LED panels. HMI, tungsten, fluorescent, and other replaceable lamps, and LED fixtures, are inspected at check-out and check-in. Customer is responsible for the Replacement Cost of any lamp or globe that is returned broken, cracked, fingerprinted, or otherwise damaged, or that fails during the Rental Period, and for the repair or Replacement Cost of any LED fixture returned with dead panels, dead emitters, dead pixels, or color shift that was not present at check-out.

10.5 Overhead, rigging, and mounting. Any use of Equipment overhead, on grids, on stands over people, on magnetic or suction mounts, on car mounts, or on any rig is Customer's responsibility. Customer will use rated hardware, safety cables, and secondary retention, respect all payload limits, and use qualified grips and riggers. Shine Cine's recommendations do not constitute engineering approval.

11. Loss, Theft, and Damage

11.1 Customer bears all risk. From the start to the end of the Rental Period, Customer is responsible for all loss of, theft of, and damage to the Equipment, from any cause, including accident, negligence of anyone, fire, water, weather, act of God, vandalism, confiscation, or theft, whether or not insured, and whether or not Customer was at fault. Customer's insurance does not limit Customer's obligations, and Shine Cine may enforce them directly against Customer without waiting for any insurance claim.

11.2 Lost, stolen, or destroyed Equipment. Customer will pay Shine Cine the Replacement Cost of any Equipment that is lost, stolen, or not returned, or that Shine Cine reasonably determines is not economically repairable, within ten (10) days of Shine Cine's invoice. Customer must report any theft to law enforcement within 24 hours and give Shine Cine a copy of the police report. Customer receives no credit because a part or accessory was not used, and no salvage rights unless Shine Cine agrees in writing.

11.3 Damaged Equipment. Customer will pay the full cost of repairing damaged Equipment, including parts, labor, shipping, diagnostic charges, and recalibration or lens re-collimation, as determined by the manufacturer or Shine Cine's approved service center, plus Shine Cine's handling time at its service rate. Shine Cine decides, reasonably and in good faith, whether Equipment is repaired or replaced, and that decision is binding on Customer.

11.4 Loss of Use. In addition to repair or Replacement Cost, Customer will pay Loss of Use for each day Equipment is late, missing, or out of inventory for repair or replacement, at Published Rates for that item, without any pricing adjustments, from the scheduled return date until the item is returned to rentable inventory or the Replacement Cost is paid in full, whichever is first. Loss of Use for any single item is capped at the lesser of thirty (30) rental days at Published Rates or that item's Replacement Cost. Customer acknowledges that Shine Cine's actual lost income is difficult to calculate, that repair and replacement may be delayed by causes outside Shine Cine's control, and that Loss of Use as calculated here is a reasonable estimate of Shine Cine's loss and not a penalty.

11.5 Consigned and subrented Equipment. For Equipment owned by a third party, Customer's obligations under this Section are the same, and Customer will also pay any loss, damage, and loss-of-use charges the owner or third-party rental house imposes on Shine Cine under its terms.

11.6 Check-in and latent damage. Acceptance of returned Equipment is not a waiver of any claim, including for damage that is not discovered until inspection, testing, or the next rental. Shine Cine will use reasonable efforts to notify Customer of damage found within ten (10) business days after check-in, and will provide photos or a description on request.

11.7 Deposits and card charges. Shine Cine may apply any deposit and charge Customer's card on file for amounts due under this Section as provided in Section 14.

12. Insurance

12.1 Certificate before release. Unless Shine Cine agrees in writing to an alternative under Section 13, Customer must deliver a certificate of insurance acceptable to Shine Cine before any Equipment is released, and must keep the coverage in force through the entire Rental Period, including transit and storage.

12.2 Required coverage. The certificate must show at minimum:

• Rented equipment coverage (miscellaneous rented equipment, inland marine, or equipment floater) covering all Equipment on the Rental Order for its full Replacement Cost with no deduction for depreciation, on an all-risk basis, worldwide, on premises, in transit, and at named and unnamed locations, with no unattended-vehicle theft exclusion, and covering loss of use or rental income owed to Shine Cine. The limit must be at least the total Replacement Cost of the Equipment on the Rental Order, as stated on the quote or Rental Order. If the Rental Order does not state a Replacement Cost, the minimum limit is $200,000. Ask us for the Replacement Cost of your package before you buy coverage so you carry the right amount.
• Commercial general liability of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, naming Shinyboard LLC DBA Shine Cine as additional insured on a primary and non-contributory basis, with a waiver of subrogation in favor of Shine Cine.
• Auto coverage as required by Section 9.8, only when a vehicle is on the Rental Order.
• Workers' compensation as required by Texas law for Customer's employees, whenever Shine Cine personnel will be on Customer's set or Customer's crew will be working in Shine Cine's premises beyond ordinary prep.

12.3 Certificate details. The certificate must name "Shinyboard LLC DBA Shine Cine, 911 S. Main St. #B, Fort Worth, TX 76104" as certificate holder, loss payee for Equipment, and additional insured for liability; must be issued by an insurer rated A- or better by A.M. Best; must state the policy period covering the full Rental Period; and must provide at least thirty (30) days' written notice to Shine Cine of cancellation or material change, or the maximum notice the policy allows. Short-term production policies are acceptable if they meet these requirements. Shine Cine does not accept certificates from insurers it has identified as not meeting its requirements, currently including Thimble and NEXT Insurance, and may accept or reject any certificate in its reasonable discretion.

12.4 Customer remains liable. Insurance is for Shine Cine's additional protection. It does not limit Customer's liability, and any deductible, exclusion, denial, or shortfall is Customer's responsibility. Customer's insurer must agree that Shine Cine's rights under the policy are not affected by any act, neglect, or breach of condition by Customer other than non-payment of premium.

12.5 Failure to insure. If Customer fails to provide or maintain required insurance, Shine Cine may refuse to release Equipment, require a deposit under Section 13, or, at its option and without obligation, obtain coverage and bill Customer its cost plus a handling fee. Lapse or cancellation of required insurance during a Rental Period is an immediate default under Section 24.

13. Customers Without Insurance

13.1 Options. Shine Cine does not offer a damage waiver. A Customer who does not carry qualifying insurance may, at Shine Cine's discretion, rent by (a) purchasing a short-term production policy that meets Section 12 and delivering the certificate before release, or (b) providing a refundable security deposit or card pre-authorization equal to the total Replacement Cost of the Equipment on the Rental Order, held under Section 14 until the Equipment is checked in. Shine Cine may limit the Equipment, the Rental Period, or the total Replacement Cost it will release against a deposit, and may decline any rental without insurance.

13.2 Deposit is not a limit on liability. A deposit under this Section is security only. Customer remains fully responsible under Section 11 for all loss, damage, and Loss of Use, including any amount above the deposit.

13.3 Vehicles. Vehicles are released only against the auto coverage required by Section 9.8 unless Shine Cine agrees in writing to another arrangement.

14. Security Deposit and Payment Card Authorization

14.1 Deposit. Shine Cine may require a refundable security deposit or a payment card pre-authorization hold for any rental, in an amount stated on the Rental Order, up to the Replacement Cost of the Equipment. Shine Cine may apply all or part of the deposit to unpaid rental, late charges, damage, loss, cleaning, fuel, mileage, tolls, citations, or any other amount due, and will refund the balance within ten (10) business days after the Equipment is checked in and passes inspection. Pre-authorization holds are released by Customer's card issuer according to its own timing.

14.2 Card on file. Customer authorizes Shine Cine to keep Customer's credit or debit card information on file and to charge that card, without further notice, for all rental charges, extensions, late returns, damage, loss, Loss of Use, cleaning, fuel, mileage, tolls, citations, delivery, service fees, taxes, and past-due balances owed under any Rental Contract. Customer agrees these are authorized charges and will not dispute them with its card issuer except for amounts Customer disputes in good faith in writing to Shine Cine first. Shine Cine will send an itemized receipt for each charge.

14.3 Card security. Shine Cine stores card information only through its payment processor in accordance with card-network security rules and does not keep full card numbers on paper or in unsecured systems.

15. Payment Terms, Late Charges, and Taxes

15.1 When payment is due. Unless Shine Cine has approved Account Terms in writing, all rental, sale, and service charges are due in full before Equipment is released. Approved Account Terms are as stated in the approval and may be revised or withdrawn by Shine Cine at any time based on payment history, credit information, or the size of the order. Additional charges that arise during or after the rental (extensions, damage, loss, fuel, mileage, tolls, cleaning) are due upon invoice.

15.2 Late charges. Any amount not paid when due bears a late charge of 1.5% per month (18% per year), or the maximum rate permitted by applicable Texas law if less, from the due date until paid. It is the parties' intent to comply with Texas usury law. If any charge is ever determined to be interest in excess of the lawful maximum, it will be reduced to the maximum and any excess already paid will be credited to Customer's account or refunded.

15.3 Returned payments. Any check, ACH, or card payment that is returned or reversed is subject to a returned-payment charge of $30 or the maximum amount permitted by Texas law, plus any bank fees Shine Cine incurs, and Shine Cine may require certified funds for future payments.

15.4 Payment methods. Shine Cine accepts cash, company and cashier's checks, ACH, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and other methods Shine Cine designates. Shine Cine may decline any payment method for any order.

15.5 Taxes. Rental charges are subject to Texas state and local sales and use tax unless Customer provides a valid, properly completed Texas resale or exemption certificate before the invoice is issued. Customer is responsible for all taxes, duties, and fees arising from the rental or use of Equipment. If a certificate Customer provides is invalid, incomplete, or does not cover the transaction, Customer will pay the tax, penalties, and interest assessed. Motor vehicle rental tax is governed by Section 9.10.

15.6 Place of payment. All amounts due under any Rental Contract are payable at Shine Cine's office at 911 S. Main St. #B, Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas, and all obligations under this Agreement are performable in Tarrant County, Texas.

15.7 Collection costs. If Shine Cine places an account with an attorney or collection agency, or brings any action to collect amounts due or recover Equipment, Customer will pay Shine Cine's reasonable attorney's fees, collection costs, court costs, and expenses, in addition to any other amounts owed. In any dispute under a Rental Contract, the prevailing party is entitled to recover its reasonable attorney's fees and costs.

15.8 Application of pricing. Project Savings, Package Rates, Account Terms, and Extended Rental Pricing apply only as stated on the Rental Order and are conditioned on Customer's full performance. If Customer defaults, Shine Cine may re-bill the Rental Order at Published Rates. Rental charges are never credited toward the purchase of Equipment.

16. Recording Media, Data, and Footage

16.1 Media is erased at check-in. All recording media (memory cards, SSDs, drives, recorders, and any device with internal storage) is erased and reformatted immediately when returned. Customer is solely responsible for offloading, verifying, and backing up all footage and data before return.

16.2 No liability for footage or data. Shine Cine has no liability for lost, corrupted, or unrecoverable footage, files, metadata, or data, whether caused by Equipment failure, media failure, user error, or otherwise, and no liability for the cost of reshoots, production delays, or lost time. This Section is subject to Section 22.

16.3 Media and expendable sales. Sales of media and expendables are final. If unrecorded media fails because of a manufacturer defect, Shine Cine will, at its option, replace it with media of equal value; that replacement is Customer's sole remedy.

17. Sales of Equipment

For equipment Shine Cine sells rather than rents (including Aputure and other lighting), title passes on payment in full, the sale is final unless Shine Cine agrees otherwise in writing, special orders are non-cancelable, and the only warranty is the manufacturer's warranty, which Shine Cine passes through without adding to it. Sections 4, 21, and 22 apply to sales. Sales tax applies unless a valid resale or exemption certificate is on file.

18. Customer Property at Shine Cine

Customer may bring its own equipment into Shine Cine's prep bays or leave it for storage only with Shine Cine's permission. Customer-owned property on Shine Cine's premises is there at Customer's risk. Shine Cine is not a bailee for hire and is not responsible for loss or damage to Customer's property except to the extent caused by Shine Cine's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Customer must keep its own insurance on its property. Property left more than thirty (30) days after the end of a Rental Period without a written storage arrangement may be treated as abandoned after written notice to Customer's address on file, and Shine Cine may dispose of it and apply any proceeds to Customer's account.

19. Consigned and Subrented Equipment

Some Equipment is owned by third parties and rented through Shine Cine on consignment, and some is subrented by Shine Cine from other rental houses to fill Customer's order. Customer's obligations for all Equipment are the same regardless of who owns it. Shine Cine may act as agent of the owner in renting, storing, and transporting that Equipment, and each owner is an intended beneficiary of Customer's obligations under Sections 8, 11, 12, 21, and 22 for its Equipment. Customer will not deal directly with the owner or third-party rental house about Equipment on a Shine Cine Rental Order.

20. Shine Cine Personnel and Services

When Shine Cine provides delivery drivers, technicians, or other personnel, they perform only the services stated on the Rental Order. On set, Customer directs their work, is responsible for providing a safe worksite that complies with applicable safety rules, and is responsible for all creative and production decisions. Shine Cine personnel are not responsible for Customer's rigging, electrical installation, or the supervision of Customer's crew. Customer will not hire Shine Cine employees directly for the production without Shine Cine's written consent.

21. Indemnity

CUSTOMER WILL DEFEND, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD HARMLESS SHINE CINE, SHINYBOARD LLC, THEIR MEMBERS, OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND THE OWNERS OF ANY CONSIGNED OR SUBRENTED EQUIPMENT (THE "SHINE CINE PARTIES") FROM AND AGAINST ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, SUITS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES, FINES, PENALTIES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY'S FEES, FOR BODILY INJURY, DEATH, PROPERTY DAMAGE, ECONOMIC LOSS, OR ANY OTHER HARM TO ANY PERSON, INCLUDING CUSTOMER'S OWN EMPLOYEES, CREW, CAST, AND CONTRACTORS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SELECTION, POSSESSION, USE, OPERATION, TRANSPORT, STORAGE, CONDITION, OR RETURN OF THE EQUIPMENT OR VEHICLES, THE SERVICES OF SHINE CINE PERSONNEL AT CUSTOMER'S DIRECTION, OR CUSTOMER'S BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, DURING THE RENTAL PERIOD OR WHILE THE EQUIPMENT IS OTHERWISE IN CUSTOMER'S CUSTODY. THIS INDEMNITY APPLIES EVEN IF THE CLAIM IS CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF A SHINE CINE PARTY OR BY A DEFECT IN THE EQUIPMENT, BUT IT DOES NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT A CLAIM IS FINALLY DETERMINED TO HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF A SHINE CINE PARTY. CUSTOMER'S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS ARE NOT LIMITED BY THE AMOUNT OR TYPE OF INSURANCE CUSTOMER CARRIES AND SURVIVE THE END OF THE RENTAL PERIOD AND THIS AGREEMENT.

22. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NO SHINE CINE PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER OR ANYONE CLAIMING THROUGH CUSTOMER FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST FOOTAGE OR DATA, RESHOOTS, PRODUCTION DELAYS, IDLE CREW OR TALENT, LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, OR LOSS OF USE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE EQUIPMENT, VEHICLES, SERVICES, OR ANY RENTAL CONTRACT, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY LATE DELIVERY, NON-DELIVERY, EQUIPMENT DEFECT OR FAILURE, THE ACTS OF SHINE CINE PERSONNEL, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF SHINE CINE WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF THE SHINE CINE PARTIES FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF A RENTAL ORDER WILL NOT EXCEED THE RENTAL CHARGES CUSTOMER ACTUALLY PAID FOR THAT RENTAL ORDER. THESE LIMITS DO NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT A LOSS IS FINALLY DETERMINED TO HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF A SHINE CINE PARTY, OR WHERE APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION.

23. Title, Ownership, and Liens

The Equipment is and remains the property of Shine Cine or the consigning owner. This is a true lease and rental, not a sale or security agreement, and Customer acquires no ownership, equity, or option to purchase. Customer will keep the Equipment free of all liens, levies, seizures, and encumbrances, including any claim by a production lender, completion guarantor, landlord, or taxing authority, will not remove or cover ownership labels, and will notify Shine Cine immediately of any attempt to seize or levy on Equipment. Shine Cine may file a precautionary UCC financing statement describing the Equipment.

24. Default and Remedies

24.1 Events of default. Customer is in default if it (a) fails to pay any amount when due; (b) fails to return Equipment when due; (c) breaches any other term of a Rental Contract; (d) allows required insurance to lapse; (e) provided false or misleading information; (f) becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or is the subject of a bankruptcy or receivership proceeding; (g) permits any levy, seizure, or lien on Equipment; or (h) does anything that gives Shine Cine reasonable grounds to believe the Equipment or payment is at risk.

24.2 Remedies. On default, Shine Cine may, without notice except as required by law, do any or all of the following: terminate any or all Rental Contracts; declare all amounts due immediately; refuse to release or deliver Equipment; apply deposits and charge the card on file; re-bill at Published Rates; and take possession of the Equipment wherever it is located, without judicial process where that can be done without breach of the peace as permitted by Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 2A.525, or by legal process. Customer will give Shine Cine access to any premises under Customer's control for that purpose and consents to Shine Cine's use of GPS and telematics data to locate Equipment. Shine Cine is not liable for damage reasonably caused by lawful repossession, and repossession does not waive rent accrued through the date of return. Shine Cine's remedies are cumulative.

24.3 Unreturned Equipment. Equipment not returned within two (2) business days after the return date, or within the time stated in any written demand Shine Cine sends to Customer's address on file, is presumed converted. Shine Cine may bill Replacement Cost and Loss of Use, and may report the Equipment as stolen and refer the matter for prosecution under Tex. Penal Code § 31.04 (theft of service) and other law. Customer agrees that the address in its Rental Account Application is its address for the written demand described in that statute.

25. Screen Credit and Promotion

25.1 Credit. When Equipment is used in a theatrical, television, streaming, commercial, music video, or online production that carries credits, Customer will use reasonable efforts to include an end credit substantially in the form "Camera and lighting equipment provided by Shine Cine, Fort Worth, Texas." Failure to include the credit is not a material breach and does not entitle Shine Cine to injunctive relief, but Customer will make good-faith efforts to correct an omission in future versions on Shine Cine's written request.

25.2 Promotion. Shine Cine will not publicly name Customer, the production, or share behind-the-scenes material without Customer's consent, which may be given by email. Customer may withdraw consent for future use at any time.

26. Authority and Personal Responsibility

26.1 Authority. The person accepting this Agreement or any Rental Order for a company represents that they are authorized to bind the company. If the company later disputes that authority, or if the company does not exist or is not in good standing, the individual who accepted is personally responsible as Customer.

26.2 Individuals. A Customer who rents as an individual, sole proprietor, or owner-operator is personally responsible for all obligations under every Rental Contract.

26.3 Personal guarantee. Shine Cine may require an owner or officer of a company Customer to sign a separate Personal Guarantee as a condition of opening an account, extending Account Terms, or releasing high-value Equipment. Shine Cine's decision to release Equipment without a guarantee is not a waiver of the right to require one later.

27. Governing Law, Venue, and Jury Waiver

27.1 Texas law. This Agreement and every Rental Contract are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, including Chapter 2A of the Texas Business and Commerce Code, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules, regardless of where the Equipment is used.

27.2 Venue. Because all obligations are performable in Tarrant County, Texas, the parties agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any suit arising out of a Rental Contract will be brought in the state or federal courts sitting in Tarrant County, Texas, and Customer consents to personal jurisdiction there. Nothing prevents Shine Cine from seeking recovery of Equipment or enforcement of a judgment in any jurisdiction where Equipment or Customer is located.

JURY WAIVER: TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RENTAL CONTRACT.

28. Force Majeure

Shine Cine is not liable for any failure or delay in delivering Equipment or performing services caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including weather, fire, flood, power or internet failure, labor disputes, carrier or supplier failure, subrental non-delivery, theft or damage by a prior customer, government action, epidemic, or acts of God. In that case Shine Cine will use reasonable efforts to substitute comparable Equipment or will refund any prepaid charges for Equipment not provided, which is Customer's sole remedy. Force majeure does not excuse Customer's obligations to pay, to return Equipment, or to bear the risk of loss.

29. Notices

Notices to Shine Cine must be sent to 911 S. Main St. #B, Fort Worth, TX 76104, or to the email address Shine Cine designates for notices. Notices to Customer may be sent to the mailing address or email address in Customer's Rental Account Application, as updated by Customer in writing, and are effective when sent by email, when delivered by hand or courier, or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mail. Customer must keep its mailing address, email, and phone number current with Shine Cine at all times.

30. Changes to This Agreement

Shine Cine may revise this Agreement by posting a new dated version on shinecine.com and making it available at its premises. A new version applies to Rental Orders placed after it is posted, not to a Rental Period already in progress. Customer's placement of a Rental Order, acceptance of delivery, or pickup of Equipment after a new version is posted is acceptance of that version. Shine Cine will use reasonable efforts to notify account holders by email of material changes.

31. General Provisions

• Entire agreement. This Agreement, the Rental Account Application, any Personal Guarantee, and the Rental Orders are the entire agreement between the parties about their subject matter and replace all prior terms, quotes, and understandings. Terms on Customer's purchase orders or other forms do not apply.
• Amendments and waivers. Changes to this Agreement are effective only as provided in Section 30 or in a writing signed by Shine Cine's owner or manager. Shine Cine's failure to enforce any term, acceptance of late payment, or release of Equipment without a required document is not a waiver of that term or of any later default.
• Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the rest of the Agreement remains in effect.
• Assignment. Customer may not assign this Agreement or any Rental Contract without Shine Cine's written consent. Shine Cine may assign its rights, including to a lender or to the owner of consigned Equipment.
• Survival. Sections 4, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, and 31 survive the return of Equipment and the termination of this Agreement.
• Relationship. The parties are independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement makes Shine Cine a partner, joint venturer, employer, or agent of Customer or a participant in the production.
• Time. Time is of the essence for return of Equipment and payment.
• Headings and interpretation. Headings are for convenience only. "Including" means "including without limitation." No rule of construction against the drafter applies.
• Counterparts and records. This Agreement and any Rental Order may be accepted in counterparts and electronically, and a copy or electronic record is as effective as an original.
