(b). No subsequent modification of these terms and conditions shall be effective unless confirmed in writing by an authorized officer of the Seller. (c).

If the requested specifications and other information is not timely delivered in a form reasonably acceptable to the Seller, the Seller may extend the time of delivery of the goods for a reasonable period, terminate any obligation to make such deliveries, or take any other reasonable action in the discretion of Seller. (b). No transfer of Intellectual Property Rights or license is meant to be affected or granted by this Agreement. (c). Seller and its licensors, shall own and shall retain all right, title and interest in and to: (i) any of its intellectual property rights, including any development thereof (including all copies, modifications, improvements and derivative works thereof, by whomever produced); (ii) all of its service marks, trademarks, trade names or any other designations associated with Seller’s technology and products; and (iii) all copyrights, patent rights, trade secret rights, and other proprietary rights relating to Company’s technology and products, whether registered or not (collectively “Intellectual Property Rights”).

Delivery The Seller will use its best endeavors to deliver all goods at the date and within the time specified in the contract.

Seller shall use reasonable efforts to fill this Order in accordance with the estimated shipping date, but shall not be responsible for any delays in filling this Order nor liable for any losses or damages resulting from such delays, and this Order not be subject to cancellation for such delays. 6. Limited Warranty See Limited Warranty for terms and limitations of the Limited Warranty provided by Seller. 7. Indemnification Seller and Buyer agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any loss, cost, damage or expense, including personal injury and property loss (except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence of either party), arising out of any third party claims of every kind whatsoever that arise in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, from or are connected with: (i) the design, manufacture, production, preparation, performance, use or consumption of the Products supplied hereunder (except Seller retains any defenses it might have against an injured user or consumer of the Products for that person’s negligence), (ii) any failure to comply with any applicable laws, codes or regulations by, or caused by, either party or its agents, (iii) a breach by either party of any warranty, express or implied, or of any term of this Agreement, (iv) any claim that any person or entity within the other party’s system is liable for damage, injury or loss as a result of participation in the design and/or approval of such Product, and (v) any allegation that the Products or Services infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate such party’s Intellectual Property Rights. If a Product or Service is found, or in Seller’s reasonable opinion are likely to be found, to infringe on an Intellectual Property Right, in addition to its indemnity obligation, Seller may within a reasonable time, at its option and sole expense, (a) secure for Buyer the right to continue the use of such infringing item; (b) replace such item with a substantially equivalent non-infringing item or modify such item so that it becomes non-infringing; or (c) if neither of the preceding two options is feasible after using commercially reasonable efforts, terminate this Agreement effective immediately and refund to Buyer (i) any fees paid, on a pro rata basis, for the allegedly infringing item and (ii) any pre-paid fees for Services or Products that were not provided. If Buyer or its customers utilize Seller’s products in a manner inconsistent with uses documented in the Seller’s Operating Manual that is shipped with the product, then Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any and all claims, losses, demands, penalties, fines, forfeitures, proceedings, suits, and actions which may be made or brought against Seller by any person including any purchaser of the Goods or any product made therefrom, arising from the use of the Goods or any products in which the Goods are used, including, but not limited to, liability for negligence or strict liability, infringement of any patent, trademark or trade name, copyright and the like, or from any latent or hidden defects in the quality of said goods or resulting products, or from the dangerous condition thereof, and Buyer shall pay any and all costs, fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses, judgments, awards and fines for and in behalf of Seller as incurred or as they become due. 8. Limitations on Buyer’s Remedies Inasmuch as the value of the Goods sold hereunder may be substantially disproportionate to the value of products to be used in conjunction therewith, and, for the express purpose of limiting the liability of Seller and the remedies available to Buyer to an extent which is reasonably proportionate to the commercial value of this transaction, Buyer and Seller agree: (a). In keeping with the course of performance and dealing, usage of the trade, and the accepted practice of Seller, Seller’s liability to Buyer or to any party claiming through or on behalf of Buyer, with respect to any claim or loss arising out of this transaction or alleged to have resulted from an act or omission of Seller’s negligence or otherwise, including failure to deliver, delay in delivery, or breach of warranty, shall be limited to an amount equal to the purchase price of the goods paid by the Buyer to the Seller less the fair market value of the Goods in Buyer’s possession with respect to which such liability is claimed or, where appropriate and at the option of Seller, to replacement of the Goods or replacement and pickup of the Goods. IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF THIS TRANSACTION. NO ACTION REGARDLESS OF FORM, ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT BY BUYER MORE THAN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION HAS ACCRUED. (b). The Buyer shall not be entitled to withhold payment of any amount payable under the contract to the Seller because of any disputed claim of the Buyer nor shall the Buyer be entitled to set off against any amount payable under the contract to the Seller any monies which are not presently payable by the Seller or for which the Seller disputes liability. 9. Seller’s Remedies In the event that the Buyer fails to perform any of its obligations, the Seller shall be entitled to all legal and equitable remedies including those specified herein and under the Uniform Commercial Code. (a). Until such time as Buyer has paid the agreed purchase price, Seller hereby retains and Buyer hereby grants a purchase money security interest in the Goods described on the face hereof. In connection therewith, Buyer agrees to execute all instruments (including title documents and/or financing statements) deemed necessary by Seller under the applicable law to establish, maintain and continue perfected Seller’s purchase money security interest in the goods or otherwise to protect its rights in and to said Goods. Buyer hereby authorizes Seller as its attorney-in-fact to execute and file, on Buyer’s behalf, any such instruments or documents. (b). In the event the Seller should elect to pursue its remedies under Section 2-708 of the Uniform Commercial Code, damages shall be, at the Seller’s option, either equal to the difference between the market price at the time and place for tender and the unpaid contract price or equal to the profit that the Seller would have realized under this contract. In addition, the Seller may recover incidental damages which shall include but not be limited to cancellation fees or penalties imposed by its suppliers or manufacturers. Seller shall be entitled to recover all of its costs, fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses in pursuing any and all of its remedies against the Buyer. 10. Force Majeure The Seller shall not be liable for failure in the performance of its obligations hereunder where such performance has been delayed prevented or rendered commercially impractical due to fires, strikes, disputes with workmen, war, civil commotion, epidemics, floods, accidents, delays in transportation, shortage of vehicles, shortage of or inability to obtain power, fuel, or other material, shortage of labor, fire, acts, demands or requirements of the Government of the United States, or of any other State or Government, acts of God, acts or omissions of Buyer, or to any other causes beyond the reasonable control of the Seller, or of the Seller’s supplier, notwithstanding that such causes of delay are operative at the time of making the contract, and the existence of such causes of delay shall justify the suspension of manufacture and shall extend the time of performance on the part of the Seller to such extent as may be necessary to enable it to make delivery in the exercise of reasonable diligence after the causes of delay have been removed. If the manufacture or delivery of the goods is still prevented or hindered at the end of a reasonable period, the Seller may terminate any deliveries not made by giving notice to the Buyer and the Seller shall have no liability whatsoever to the Buyer in connection with any such deliveries not made. 11. Termination Seller may terminate this contract at any time: (a) without notice to Buyer, in the event Buyer shall breach any of the terms and conditions of this contract; (b) without notice to Buyer, if Buyer makes any assignment of assets, or if a trustee or receiver is appointed to administer or conduct Buyer’s business or affairs, or if a petition is filed regarding Buyer for the approval of a plan of reorganization or voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, or if Buyer is unable to pay its debts as they become due. Such termination shall be without prejudice to any right vested in Seller at the date of such termination, and Seller’s existing rights and obligations under the provisions of this contract shall not be affected by such termination; or (c) at its convenience, either in whole or in part, by written, telegraphic or facsimile notice with 60 days notice. If this contract is terminated for convenience, any claim of Buyer shall be settled on the basis of reasonable costs it has incurred in the performance of this contract. 12. Waiver No delay or failure by either party to exercise any right under this contract, and no partial or single exercise of that right, shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right, unless said waiver is supported by additional consideration and authorized in writing by the party so waiving. 13. Export Licensing (a). Buyer and Seller shall comply with all national and international export and control regulations. Equipment, technology and technical data shall not be exported, re-sold, diverted, re-exported or disposed of in other than the country of ultimate destination (currently approved by the United States Government), without the prior approval of the United States Department of State or Commerce or other Agency of the United States Government, whichever is appropriate. (b). Seller shall assume no liability in the event that an export license is not approved or later withdrawn by the United States Government or other applicable Government. (c) Where Buyer requests a routed transaction (meaning it will along with its U.S freight forwarder accept responsibility as U.S Exporter of Record to attain such applicable Government approvals) it shall supply all required documentation to the Seller including the required routed transaction letters from both Buyer and its designated U.S. designated Forwarder/agent. 14. Assignment – Delegation No assignment or delegation of any obligation owed or of the performance of any obligation hereunder by the Seller shall be made without the written permission of the Buyer. 15. Partial Invalidity The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this contract shall not affect the other provisions hereof, but such term or provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary in the court’s opinion to render such term or provision enforceable, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced accordingly, preserving to the fullest permissible extent the intent and agreements of the parties herein set forth. 16.
