PURCHASE ORDER ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

1. GOVERNING TERMS AND CONDITIONS: The seller of materials, goods, merchandise and/or services as indicated on the purchase order (or any agreement to which these terms are referenced) is referred to herein as ‘Seller”, and the person or company purchasing materials, goods or merchandise is referred to herein as ‘Buyer’. These Additional Terms and Conditions shall govern and are hereby incorporated into any sale of goods and/or services by Seller to Buyer. Any terms in Seller’s Order acknowledgment, sales literature, quotations, invoice, or any other documents which are in conflict with or in addition to these terms hereof are hereby deemed to be material alterations to the terms of the Order and, except to the extent they are (in Buyer’s opinion) more favorable to the Buyer than the terms stated on the Order, notice is hereby given to Seller that any such terms are rejected. In the event there is a specific contract in place between Buyer and Seller at the time of the Order that pertains to the materials, goods, merchandise and/or services described in the Order, then the terms and conditions contained in such contract shall control and shall supersede any conflicting terms or conditions contained in these Additional Terms and Conditions.

2. PURCHASE PRICE: The price set forth on the face of the Order shall in no event be increased without Buyer‘s express consent, either initial oral consent subsequently confirmed in writing or prior written consent, given by a duly authorized agent of Buyer. If the price of the Order is incorrect, Seller must immediately notify Buyer before processing the Order. Seller may notify Buyer in writing or orally of the incorrect price, but if said notice is oral, Seller shall confirm this price correction in writing within the same business day. If Seller processes any part of the Order or delivers any of the goods and/or services hereunder, Seller warrants that the prices for the articles sold and/or services provided to Buyer under the Order are not less favorable than those currently extended to any other customer for the same or like articles and/or services in equal or smaller quantities. In the event Seller reduces its prices for such article and/or service during the term of the Order, Seller agrees to reduce the prices hereof correspondingly.

3. PACKING: All goods ordered hereunder shall be suitably packed and marked so as to comply with the shipping instructions found on the face of the Order. Unless otherwise set forth on the face of the Order, Buyer shall not be charged for packing, boxing, marking, cartage or storage. Buyer’s records will be accepted as final and conclusive with respect to all shipments which are not accompanied by invoices or shipping documents indicating quantities shipped. Shipments must be made in the quantities specified on the face of the Order and any overshipments may be rejected by Buyer in its sole discretion.

4. BUYER’S INSPECTION—DEFECTIVE GOODS: Buyer shall inspect the goods and/or evaluate the services in a reasonable and timely fashion for quality, quantity and otherwise.

Buyer shall have the right to reject any or all of said goods or services which are in Buyer’s judgment defective or non—conforming. In the event of Buyer’s rejection of any goods and/or services purchased hereunder, Buyer will, within a reasonable time, notify Seller in writing as to the goods and/or services rejected and will request instructions from Seller with respect to the disposition of such rejected goods. Pending receipt of Seller’s instructions, Buyer shall hold any rejected goods at Seller’s risk and expense. In addition to Buyer’s other rights, Buyer may charge the Seller all expenses of unpacking, examining, repacking and reshipping of such rejected goods. In the event Buyer receives goods whose defects or non-conformity is not apparent on examination, Buyer reserves the right to require their replacement (or full refund), as well as payment of any damages resulting from such defects or non—conformities. If Seller fails, within a reasonable time, to furnish Buyer with instructions as to the disposition of such rejected goods, Buyer may return the rejected goods to Seller at Seller’s expense. Any complaint, claim, notice of any defect or notice of breach, whether with respect to quality, quantity, or any other defect or breach, shall be considered to be timely if it is made by Buyer within thirty (30) days after Buyer discovers or learns of the existence thereof.

5. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY: Seller is on notice that Buyer may utilize the goods specified in the Order in the manufacture of products destined for sale to the United States Government.
