_______ days from the date hereof of the Supplier's best possible delivery for
acceptance.
2. Time of Delivery
Buyer's production schedules are based upon delivery to the Buyer by the date specified
on the face of this Purchase Order. Time is therefore the essence of this Purchase
Order. If deliveries are not made at the time agreed upon, the Buyer reserves the right
to cancel or to purchase elsewhere, and hold Supplier accountable therefore.
3. Independent Agreements
The terms and conditions set forth herein shall not apply in any respect if a separate and
complete agreement between Buyer and Supplier regarding the Goods and/or Services
is in effect.
4. Quantities
The specific quantity ordered must be delivered in full and not be changed without
Buyer's prior written consent. Any different quantity without such consent is subject to
Buyer's rejection and return at Supplier's expense.
5. Price
The price for each Good and/or Service shall be the price as shown for such Good
and/or Service indicated on the face of this Purchase Order. Any change in price without
Buyer's prior written consent is expressly rejected. No additional charges of any kind,
including charges for boxing, packing, cartage or other extras will be allowed except with
Buyer's prior written consent.
6. Payment
Unless otherwise agreed, payment shall be due net ________ days from the date of
delivery plus _________ days, or from the date of receipt of correct invoice, whichever
date is later. Unless otherwise agreed, Buyer shall be entitled to a ________percent
(______%) discount off payments remitted within ________ (15) calendar days from the
date of delivery of the Goods or performance of Services, or from the date of receipt of
correct invoice, whichever date is later.
7. Taxes
Except for state sales and use taxes, the price for the Goods and/or Services includes all
taxes, fees, and charges that may be imposed with respect to the purchase of the Goods
and/or Services.
8. Delivery
Time is of the essence in the performance of this Purchase Order, and any delay in
delivery shall constitute a material breach. Title shall transfer to Buyer upon delivery of
the Goods to Buyer. Unless otherwise agreed, shipment of the Goods shall be FOB
destination with Supplier bearing the risk of loss and cost of delivery.
9. Invoicing
All packages, packing slips and invoices must be plainly marked with the Purchase
Order number shown on the face of this Purchase Order and such other information as
Buyer may request from time to time. Supplier shall state separately on its invoice the
amount of state sales and/or use tax applicable to the sale of Goods and/or Services.
10. Inspection
Buyer is entitled to inspect the Goods and/or Services (including the performance of
tests) before or after receipt and reject them for failure to conform to this Purchase
Order, regardless of whether any payment has been made by Buyer, whether the
nonconformity substantially impairs the value of the Goods and/or Services, or whether
the nonconformity may be cured by Supplier. Buyer has the right upon reasonable notice
to enter Supplier's facilities to inspect the production of Goods and/or performance of
Services, without precluding subsequent inspection and rejection of Goods and/or
Services. If the inspection discloses, in Buyer's good faith opinion, that Supplier's ability
to meet the requirements of this Purchase Order is questionable, Buyer may treat such
circumstance as a material breach and terminate this Purchase Order without liability to
Supplier. If Goods tendered pursuant to this Purchase Order are nonconforming, Buyer
may return all of the Goods to Supplier, at Supplier's expense, for first priority repair,
replacement or a refund at the election of Buyer.
11. Independent Parties
Agents, employees, or other persons selected or directed by Supplier to perform this
Purchase Order shall not be agents or employees of Buyer, whether or not a separate
charge is made for their services. Supplier agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless Buyer from and against any claims arising out of the acts of Supplier, its
employees, agents or contractors and against liability for taxes in connection with the
services performed by Supplier, its employees, agents or contractors.
12. Insurance
Any insurance purchased by Supplier to cover loss or damage to the Goods in transit to
Buyer shall be solely at Supplier's expense. If Supplier is performing Services, Supplier
shall maintain a reasonable amount of insurance covering the risks associated with such
Services, and upon request name Buyer as an additional insured and provide evidence
of the same to Buyer.
13. Changes
Buyer is entitled, at any time, to change the specifications for the Goods and/or Services
or any other matters relating to performance of this Purchase Order; provided that the
price and/or delivery schedule may be equitably adjusted with Buyer's prior written
consent to reflect additional costs and/or schedule adjustments required by the changes.
Any claim for adjustment is waived unless made in writing within ________ days after
receipt of Buyer's written change order. Supplier shall not make any change or deviation
to Goods and/or Services covered specifically by this Purchase Order, except with
Buyer's prior written consent. Upon approval by Buyer, Inc. of the initial design, any
process changes, design changes or deviations considered by Supplier must be
submitted to Buyer in writing for review. If changes are submitted for approval, the
