This document establishes those terms and conditions under which the seller indicated on the face of this document (“Seller”) sells its products to the purchaser (“Buyer”) as and when orders are placed by Buyer and accepted by Seller. All orders are accepted subject to and incorporate these Terms and Conditions of Sale (“T&Cs”). Terms set forth on the face of this document shall prevail over any inconsistent terms herein. In the event there is a separate written agreement between the parties that conflicts with these T&Cs, the terms of the written agreement shall prevail. By placing an order with Seller, Buyer agrees to these T&Cs. These T&Cs override any different or additional terms or conditions contained in any purchase order or other document submitted by Buyer unless such different or additional terms or conditions are specifically agreed to in writing by Seller. Upon acceptance by Seller of an order, these T&Cs and this document constitute the “Agreement” between Buyer and Seller for the purchase and sale of the products set forth therein (“Products”). 2. DELIVERIES. Seller shall attempt to meet requested delivery dates contained in Buyer’s orders but will not be liable for failure to do so. Any time or date for delivery specified by Seller is an estimate only. Seller reserves the right to make early or installment shipments and invoice Buyer accordingly. Seller’s weights and quantities stated on the delivery note shall govern except in the case of proven error provided to Seller within seven (7) days of delivery. 3. CHANGES. Buyer may not modify, cancel or otherwise alter orders after the order is in process without Seller’s written consent. Any such cancellation, modification or alteration shall be subject to additional conditions as may be imposed by Seller at such time, including reimbursing Seller for any costs, expenses and losses relating to such change. 4. PAYMENT. Payment terms are net 30 days from invoice date. Seller shall issue invoices upon shipment of Products. Each installment delivery constitutes a separate order with regard to payment. Payments shall be made at the direction, to the location and in the currency specified on the invoice. Any amounts unpaid after the due date shall accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month, or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is less. No part of any amount payable to Seller may be reduced due to any counterclaim, set-off, adjustment or other right which the Buyer might have against Seller or any other party. If Buyer fails to pay for any one or more shipments when due, Seller shall have the right, in addition to other remedies, to either: (a) suspend or cancel future deliveries, or (b) require cash payment on or before shipment/delivery. Should Buyer’s financial viability become unsatisfactory to Seller, cash payment or satisfactory security may be required by Seller before proceeding with further Product deliveries. Buyer agrees to furnish Seller with credit information on request. 5. PRICE. Unless otherwise set forth on the face of an accepted purchase order, the price for the Products shall be determined by Seller on the date of order acceptance. Seller price quotations are provisional only and Seller reserves the right to change such price at any time. Prices do not include taxes and other charges, and in some cases may not reflect materials surcharges. 6. TAXES AND CHARGES. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all taxes, excises or other charges that Seller may be required to pay to any governmental entity or collect for any governmental entity upon the production, sale, transportation, delivery or use of the Products sold hereunder. 7. SHIPMENT, TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS. Seller will ship and deliver the Products in accordance with the trade term FCA, shipping point (Incoterms 2010). Title and risk of loss to Products transfers to Buyer upon delivery of the Products to the carrier at the shipping point. 8. NO LICENSE. The sale of any Product hereunder does not transfer to Buyer any right or license under any patent, trademark or other intellectual property right with respect to any such Product. Seller retains ownership of all intellectual property rights to the Products sold hereunder. 9. WARRANTIES. Seller warrants that at the time of delivery to Buyer, Products sold hereunder shall conform to Seller’s standard written specifications for such Products. Determination of the suitability of the Products for the uses and applications contemplated by Buyer shall be the sole responsibility of Buyer. Any suggestions or recommendations made by Seller concerning uses or applications of the Products are believed to be reliable, but Seller makes no warranty or guarantee of the results to be obtained since the conditions of the use and application by Buyer and others are beyond Seller’s control. Seller is not liable for claims caused by the following: 1) negligence of Buyer or third party; 2) alteration, contamination or misuse of the Product; 3) any specification or modification made at the request of Buyer; 4) Buyer’s failure to follow health and safety instructions provided by Seller or in accordance with industry standards; and/or 5) Buyer’s failure to comply with laws. Finally, Seller has no liability for any warranty claims: 1) submitted after expiration of the claim period; or 2) if Seller is not given reasonable opportunity to examine the Products to which the claim relates and Buyer does not return such Products to Seller upon Seller’s request. 10. CLAIM PERIOD; DISCLAIMER. In no event shall Buyer make a warranty claim or commence any action against Seller later than the earlier of 7 days after discovery of the breach or 6 months after delivery of the Products to which the claim relates. Buyer’s failure to give Seller written notice of any claim or action within the applicable time period shall constitute an absolute and unconditional waiver of such claim or action. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THESE T&Cs, SELLER MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, NO MATTER WHETHER ARISING BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND/OR AGAINST INFRINGEMENT.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE TO BUYER FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE, RESULTING OR ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH BREACH OF SELLER’S WARRANTIES OR THESE T&CS OR ANY CAUSE ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCT. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY STATUTORY REMEDIES WHICH ARE INCONSISTENT WITH THIS PROVISION ARE EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY BUYER.
