1. CONTRACT. Our Order Confirmation
or Quotation constitutes the complete and only agreement and contract
between us. No agent or employee is authorized to agree otherwise or to
waive this stipulation.
2. PAYMENT AND TAXES. Invoices will reflect the net
prices plus any applicable sales, use, excise or similar taxes. You will
pay each invoice in U.S. dollars drawn on and payable by a U.S. bank on
or before the due date stated on each invoice on the terms set forth on
the face hereof. Bank collection or processing fees are for your account.
No payment will be withheld by you pending settlement of any claim, allowance
or adjustment. Interest on amounts not paid when and as due will accrue
at the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
3. DELIVERY. Unless we agree otherwise in writing, delivery
of the goods hereunder shall be made f.o.b. our plant. Risk of loss or
damage shall pass to you upon delivery to the carrier. It will be your
responsibility to recover from the carrier for shortages or damage in
transit, and no credit or deduction will be granted by us therefor. You
agree to pay the carrier’s published tariff. This paragraph applies
whether or not freight is prepaid by us.
4. QUANTITIES. We may ship and you will accept in full
performance of this Agreement any quantity within 10 percent of quantities
specified on the face hereof. Invoicing will be based on actual quantities
shipped.
5. SHIPMENT DATES. Scheduled shipping dates shown on
the face hereof are estimates only and are subject to delays resulting
from causes beyond our reasonable control. We will not be liable for damages,
direct or consequential, resulting from failure to make shipments as estimated.
6. WARRANTIES. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
WHETHER OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, PERFORMANCE
OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT AS FOLLOWS:
All goods are warranted, for a period of forty five (45) days from the date
of shipment, to meet our published specifications and to be free from
defects in materials and workmanship when shipped. Our obligation under
this warranty shall be limited to repair or replacement of goods proven
within the warranty period to have been defective at the time of shipment.
Upon discovery of any such defect, you shall promptly notify us thereof,
and, if requested by us, return the defective goods to us. You shall be
responsible for all expense of removal, freight and reinstallation in
connection with repairs or replacements of defective goods. In no event
shall we be responsible for or reimburse you for repairs or replacements
made by others. In no event and under no circumstances shall we be liable
for loss of anticipated profits or for interruption of operations or for
any special, incidental or consequential damages whatever.
7. CREDIT TERMS. We may, at any time and from time to
time in our sole discretion, limit or cancel your credit as to either
time or amount or both, and as a consequence we may require full or partial
payment in cash before delivery. If so, we will notify you in writing
of the payment or payments required, and your failure to make any such
payment on or before the due date shall constitute a repudiation of this
Agreement. Bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings by or against you shall
lso constitute a repudiation of this Agreement. If we reasonably doubt
your financial condition or ability to pay, or if you are delinquent in
the payment of any invoice, we may without liability and without prejudice
to any other remedy, suspend our
performance, decline to ship, stop any goods in transit or take any other
action we are legally entitled to take until we receive full cash payment
in advance or, at our option, adequate security for full payment.
8. RETURNS. No goods sold and delivered may be returned
to us without our prior written authorization or a return materials authorization
number (RMA).
9. PATENTS. We will indemnify you against any claim
that the sale or use of catalog items sold under this Agreement constitutes
an infringement of any U.S. patent covering the sale or use of such goods
as sold by us, but not the use thereof in combination with other goods
or materials, provided you shall give us prompt written notice of any
such claim and an opportunity to defend or dispose of the same. This warranty
and indemnity does not apply to any goods manufactured or assembled by
us pursuant to specification supplied by you.
10. CANCELLATION CHARGES. If you cancel or repudiate
this Agreement, you will pay to us on demand our reasonable cancellation
charges.
11. LAW APPLICABLE. All matters relating to the making,
validity, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed
by the law of Pennsylvania.
12. PRICE. On items not shipped within 90 days of the
date of this Agreement, you will be invoiced and you will pay the price
in effect at time of shipment. |
