Offer to Sell. Seller’s Quotation is an offer to sell its Product on the terms and conditions stated herein, and shall not constitute acceptance of any offer or the confirmation of an existing agreement. The quoted price in the Quotation are fixed and valid for the time period shown on the front of the Quotation and/or as specifically identified herein, subject to availability of materials and/or production scheduling at such time. All prices quoted are exclusive of taxes, insurance, freight charges or other incidental expenses, unless otherwise noted, and shall be the responsibility of the Purchaser. Purchaser expressly understands and agrees that no reference herein to Purchaser’s purchase order or any other document prepared by, or communication with Purchaser shall constitute Seller’s acceptance of any term or condition therein which varies from these Terms and Conditions.
Entire Agreement, Acceptance of Quotation. Seller’s Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale may not be contradicted by evidence of any prior agreement or of a contemporaneous oral agreement and may only be explained, supplemented, modified, altered, waived or superseded by a writing signed by both Parties. These Standard Terms and Conditions, together with those of Purchaser’s terms that are not inconsistent with them and do not: (i) require Seller to take any action besides the supply of its product; (ii) impose restrictions on Seller’s activities in addition to those imposed directly by government statue, or (iii) add to Seller’s obligations, shall constitute the agreement between Purchaser and Seller (the “Additional Purchase Terms”), if any. Terms imposing any different or additional obligations are expressly rejected. Seller may send written confirmation of the purchase order (the “Order Acknowledgement”) but Seller hereby objects to and rejects any additional terms (other than additional terms that meet the requirements of Additional Purchase Terms) or different terms, including those contained in Purchaser’s purchase order, unless Seller expressly identifies and agree to such terms in writing in the Order Acknowledgement. These Standard Terms and Conditions, together with the Additional Purchase Terms, constitute the Parties’ agreement (“Agreement”). These Standard Terms and Conditions shall govern any changes made to the requirements of the Agreement, It is Seller’s intent that its Quotation be treated as an offer. However, if Purchaser’s purchase order or any other correspondence from Purchaser is deemed to be an offer, Seller’s acceptance of Purchaser’s offer is expressly conditioned on assent to these Standard Terms and Conditions.
Payment. Payment is due as stated on Seller’s Invoice, or, if not stated thereon, upon notice that product is ready for shipment or pickup (hereinafter, collectively “Delivery”). Seller does not offer any ‘grace period’. Purchaser agrees to pay interest at ten percent (10%) per annum, or the maximum rate provided by law, on all Invoices not paid in full by the due date. Seller reserves the right to alter Purchaser’s credit limit, if any, at any time and for any reason, or to require payment for any order prior to Delivery. Purchaser’s failure to make any payments required by Seller shall give Seller the option to cancel this Agreement or to delay delivery without otherwise affecting Seller’s rights herein. Payment shall be made in United States Dollars (USD). As partial payment of sums due Seller may accept any check or tender of payment without entering into ‘accord and satisfaction’ under the law, without waiver, and without prejudice to Seller’s right to full payment of the remainder due or to become due hereunder notwithstanding any terms or conditions endorsed on or stated in any communication related to such check or tender, and Seller expressly refuses acceptance of any such terms. Seller may apply any payment tendered by Purchaser to any amount(s) owed to Seller by Purchaser, whether under this Agreement or otherwise.
