TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

  1. CONTRACT DEFINED. These Terms and Conditions of Sale (“Terms and Conditions”) together with the accompanying Confirmation or Invoice constitute the Contract (the “Contract”) for the sale of product and/or services (the “Product”) by Seller to Buyer, and Seller rejects any terms of any purchase order or other proposal of Buyer (“Purchase Order”) which differ from the Contract. Buyer may not modify, change, alter, renounce or waive any term, covenant or condition hereof or any of Seller’s rights or remedies hereunder, unless approved in writing by an authorized representative of Seller. The Contract contains the complete and exclusive agreement of Seller and Buyer concerning the Product, and all prior agreements, understandings or representations (oral or written) between the parties concerning the Product are hereby superseded by and merged into the Contract. The sale of Product by Seller to Buyer is expressly conditioned upon Buyer’s acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. Buyer’s assent to these Terms and Conditions will be conclusively presumed by Buyer’s acceptance of Product delivery or payment for Product. Seller, at its option, may accept verbal Purchase Orders, however, Seller’s records as to the terms of such sales, including quantity, price, delivery schedule, description of Product, etc, together with these Terms and Conditions, shall constitute the complete terms of such sale.IF BUYER IS ALSO PARTY TO A WRITTEN CONTRACT WITH SELLER THAT PURPORTS TO CONTAIN ALL THE TERMS OF SALE, THEY ARE NOT ALTERED HEREBY. Buyer may not cancel or modify its Purchase Order except on terms accepted in writing by Seller. In the event of such cancellation or modification, Buyer shall compensate Seller for all resultant costs and damages. All undelivered Product may be cancelled by Seller without incurring any liability to Buyer if production becomes impracticable.
  2. QUANTITY. The quantity of Product to be sold by Seller to Buyer is set forth in the Contract. Without regard to any course of dealing between Seller and Buyer, Seller shall have no continuing obligation to sell Product to Buyer. Buyer agrees to take delivery of all quantity ordered within ninety (90) days of the available ship date. Where appropriate, delivery of a Product quantity that is +/- 10% of the ordered quantity, unless otherwise specified in writing, shall be accepted and treated by both parties as the correct quantity. Payment shall be made on the basis of the actual quantity delivered.
  3. DELIVERIES. Seller will select the origin of shipment and the carrier. Product shall be delivered FOB shipping point, unless otherwise specified by Seller in writing. Buyer will bear the risk of loss of, or damage to, the Product after delivery to the FOB shipping point. Buyer will promptly unload each delivery at its own risk and expense, including any demurrage or detention charges. Delivery dates are estimated only. Seller will make commercially reasonable efforts to meet specified delivery dates, but otherwise will not be responsible for any delivery delays. Seller’s measurements of Product quantity volume shall conclusively determine the obligations of the parties to the Contract. No allowances by Seller shall be made for waste, leakage, loss or damage after loading and delivery of Product to the carrier.
  4. PRICE, PAYMENT TERMS, TAXES AND INTEREST. The price, currency and payment terms for Product will be as determined by Seller and, unless otherwise provided in the Contract, the price is subject to change at any time by Seller upon notice to Buyer. Payment, unless otherwise provided in the Contract, shall be due within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the invoice as defined by postmark or, in the case of invoices delivered electronically, the date -time stamp. Seller may establish a credit limit for Buyer’s account and may refuse to make shipments to Buyer if such shipments would result in Buyer’s account exceeding such credit limit. Seller may increase or decrease such credit limit from time to time in its sole discretion. Seller shall be under no obligation to store Product for Buyer beyond the shipment date if on such date Buyer’s account would exceed its credit limit if shipments were made. Product so affected may, at Seller’s option and after ten (10) days advance written notice to Buyer, be shipped to another customer, or treated by Seller as cancelled, subject to cancellation charges to cover Seller’s costs of such cancellation. Seller may require a deposit or letter of credit before supplying any Product. Payment shall be immediately due and payable if Buyer becomes bankrupt or is deemed to be insolvent at any time by Seller. Any sales, goods and services, value added, use or other excise tax or similar duty or other governmental charge now or hereafter imposed on the Product or on any raw material used in manufacturing the Product (or imposed on Seller, or required to be paid or collected by Seller by reason of the manufacture, transportation, sale or use of such Product or any raw material) will be paid by Buyer in addition to the price of Product. Amounts not paid when due will bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) or the maximum legal rate, whichever is less. In the event it becomes necessary for Seller to incur collection costs, or to commence a legal proceeding to collect any amount due, or any portion thereof, Buyer shall pay any and all collection costs, charges and expenses including reasonable legal fees incurred as a result of Buyer’s non -payment.
  5. WARRANTIES. Seller warrants that it has good title to all Product sold hereunder, that all Product meets the specifications designated in the Contract and that all Product is free of third party liens.
