Formation of Contract: The included quote, rate, or charge is an offer to sell the Buyer the products described in the invoice. By making payment in a legally suitable manner or signing and agreeing to make payment, upon approval, within a specified time frame in a formal agreement to purchase otherwise known as a Purchase Order, Buyer agrees to purchase the products and services on the terms and conditions specified in this Agreement.
Scope: These Terms and Conditions shall apply to sales of Goods by the Seller to the Buyer to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions referred to, offered or relied on by the Buyer whether in negotiation or at any stage in the dealings between the parties, including any standard or printed terms tendered by the Buyer, unless the Buyer specifically states in writing, separately from such terms, that it wishes such terms to apply and this has been acknowledged by the Seller in writing. Any variation to these Terms and Conditions (including any special terms and conditions agreed between the parties) shall be inapplicable unless agreed in writing by the Seller
Sample: Where a sample of the Goods is shown to and inspected by the Buyer, the parties hereto accept that such a sample is representative in nature and the bulk of the order may differ slightly as a result of the manufacturing process.
Purchase Orders: All Purchase Orders submitted to Seller must state with specificity the name of Buyer, the name of Buyer’s authorized representative, the amount of units to be purchased, the location where units are to be shipped, and method of payment. If any of these material terms are omitted, then the Purchase Order is deemed incomplete. Seller is not liable for any incomplete or incorrect orders as a result of errors or omissions on the Purchase Orders supplied by Buyer.

Payment: All methods of legal tender accepted.

If payment of the price or any part thereof is not made by the due date, the Seller shall be entitled to:
Require payment in advance of delivery in relation to any Goods not previously delivered;
Refuse to make delivery of any undelivered Goods without incurring any liability to the Buyer for non-delivery or any delay in delivery.

Title: Title in the Goods shall not pass to the Buyer until the Seller has been paid in full for the Goods.
Return of Unused Goods: All goods are sold on a firm sale basis, i.e. the Seller will not take back any goods not required or sold by the Buyer, unless otherwise agreed, in which case the following terms apply. Any returns must be authorized by a representative of the Seller before any credit will be given.

Limitation of Liability: The Seller shall not be liable for any all loss or damage suffered by the Buyer in excess of the contract price.

Intellectual Property Rights: All Intellectual Property Rights produced from or arising as a result of the performance of this Agreement shall, so far as not already vested, become the absolute property of the Seller, and the Buyer shall do all that is reasonably necessary to ensure that such rights vest in the Seller by the execution of appropriate instruments or the making of agreements with third parties.
Force Majeure: The Seller shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform any of its obligations if the delay or failure results from events or circumstances outside its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, strikes, lock outs, accidents, war, fire, breakdown of plant or machinery or shortage or unavailability of raw materials from a natural source of supply, and the Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable extension of its obligations.

Waiver: The failure by either party to enforce at any time or for any period any one or more of the Terms and Conditions herein shall not be a waiver of them or of the right at any time subsequently to enforce all Terms and Conditions of this Agreement.
Severability: If any term or provision of these Terms and Conditions is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason by any court of competent jurisdiction such provision shall be severed and the remainder of the provisions hereof shall continue in full force and effect as if these Terms and Conditions had been agreed with the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision eliminated.
