OURACCEPTANCEOFYOURORDER IS EXPRESSLYCONDITIONEDON THEGENERAL TERMSANDCONDITIONS
SET FORTH BELOW AND ALL TERMS STATED ON THE FACE OF THIS FORM. THE CONTRACT SHALL NOT
INCLUDE ANY DEVIATING OR ADDITIONAL TERMS UNLESS EXPRESSLY AGREED TO IN WRITING AND SIGNED
BY AN OFFICER OF OUR COMPANY.
PRICES:
All prices are subject to change without notice and all shipments will be invoiced at the price in effect at the time of
shipment, except when otherwise agreed to in writing by our authorized representative. Published prices are for products
of our standard design and construction and any item not covered by the most recent published price list must be referred
to us for special pricing. Prices do not include freight. Weights shown in price lists are approximate shipping weights. The
amount of any applicable present or future tax or other government charge upon the production, sale, shipment or use of
goods ordered or sold is not in the price and will be added to billing unless you provide us with an appropriate exemption
certificate.
QUOTATIONS:
Prices quoted by us are valid for 30 days from date of quotation unless we have otherwise specified in
writing. Clerical errors on quotations are subject to our correction and such errors will not be binding.
CANCELLATION AND REVISIONS:
No purchase orders accepted and acknowledged by us may be cancelled or revised
by you except with our prior written consent and upon payment of reasonable cancellation charges compensating us for
all costs incurred in work done and material purchased. We reserve the right to determine what constitutes reasonable
cancellation charges.
RETURN OF EQUIPMENT:
No equipment shall be returned to us without first obtaining a written Returned Goods
Authorization and shipping instructions from us. The returner must prepay the charges in full for transportation to our
factory. Credit allowed for new, undamaged equipment of current standard design will be a maximum of 80%; or less as
determined by Customer Service; of the invoiced price or current billing price, whichever is less. The minimum value of
returned product is $250 invoiced price or current billing price. Equipment which has been used, however slight, will not
be accepted. Authorization will not be given for return of equipment, (1) which would, in our opinion, result in an excess
in the amount of stock we normally carry, (2) not invoiced within the last 12 months, or (3) which is non-standard and
manufactured specifically to a buyer’s specifications. For non-standard equipment not of our manufacture, the only credit
allowed will be such credit as may be allowed by the manufacturer of such equipment. Equipment must be returned
within 30 days of the issuance of the Returned Goods Authorization. No item with a net value of less than $35.00 will
be authorized for return. Items not available for return are those that have a shelf life and hardware items. Unauthorized
returns may be refused and\or returned freight collect.
CREDIT AND PAYMENT:
Payment is due as noted on our invoice. Overdue accounts are subject to a service charge. All
orders are subject to approval of our credit department and we may require full or partial payment in advance. Pro rata
payments shall become due as shipments are made. If the shipments are delayed by you for any cause, payments shall
become due from date on which we are prepared to make shipment and storage shall be at your risk and expense. If
manufacture is delayed by you for any cause, a partial payment based upon the proportion of the order completed shall
become due from the date on which we are notified of the delay.
SECURITY INTEREST:
We shall have a lien on all goods sold as security for payment on the invoice price, and upon
request you shall provide and execute a financing statement showing such lien.
DELIVERY:
We will make reasonable effort to meet your delivery requirement provided you provide us, on a timely basis,
all approvals, technical data, instructions and credit approval requirements needed for release of the shipment. However,
all delivery and/or shipment dates are estimates only unless we have expressly guaranteed delivery of such dates in
writing at your specific request. In no event shall we have any liability if delivery is delayed by strikes, labor disturbances,
material shortages, plant calamities or disaster, acts of God, government actions, civil disturbance, the failure of any
pre-supposed condition of the contract, withholding shipments due to credit clearance, or other interferences beyond our
reasonable control, and the date of delivery shall be extended for a period of time equal to the time lost because of any
such reason. Emergency Orders and Rush Orders: Contact the Sales Department for applicable handling fees.
SHIPPING:
Unless you specify in writing and we acknowledge in writing, (A) goods will be boxed or crated as we may
deem proper for protection against normal handling and for domestic shipment, (B) routing and manner of shipment will
be at our discretion, and may be insured at your expense. An extra charge will be made for special handling. All shipments
