ANY ATTEMPT BY SELLER TO REPLACE, MODIFY, OR AUGMENT THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IN ANY WAY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, SENDING BUYER A DIFFERENT SET OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS IN CORRESPONDENCE, IN SHIPMENTS, OR AS PART OF AN INVOICE, IS TOTALLY REJECTED, AND SELLER AGREES THAT SUCH DIFFERING TERMS AND CONDITIONS SHALL NOT BE APPLICABLE TO THIS PURCHASE ORDER. If this purchase order shall be deemed in a court of law to be an acceptance of a prior offer by Seller, then Buyer’s acceptance is conditioned upon Seller agreeing that these terms and conditions supersede the terms and conditions contained in Seller’s offer. In the event these terms and conditions are provided to Seller as a part of Buyer’s annual notification process, then these terms and conditions shall apply to all purchase transactions between Buyer and Seller unless otherwise agreed to in writing between Seller and Buyer.
2. DELIVERY
Time is of the essence. If Seller fails to meet shipping dates, delivery dates, and/or work commencement or completion dates, then Buyer may immediately terminate this purchase order for cause or exercise any other rights and remedies to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. Except as otherwise provided on the face of this purchase order, title and risk of loss to all goods delivered pursuant hereto shall pass DDP Buyer’s facility (Incoterms 2000).
3. TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE/CHANGES OF BUYER
Buyer may cancel this purchase order or any part thereof or make changes to the drawings, designs, specifications, materials, packaging, time and place of delivery and method of transportation without cause at any time prior to shipment or commencement of the performance of any services pursuant hereto. If Buyer cancels this purchase order, cancellation charges shall be limited to Seller’s actual incurred costs as of the cancellation date for goods in process, plus the purchase price for services performed and goods completed as of the cancellation date. Upon such payment, all completed goods, any special tools purchased to fill the order, and all work in process will become the property of Buyer and shall be delivered to Buyer.

All such warranties shall survive the delivery of the goods and the receipt thereof by Buyer or the performance of the services, as applicable. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Buyer from and against any and all liabilities, damages, injuries, claims, suits (including claims and/or suits for infringement), expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and out-of-pocket expenses) resulting from or arising out of a breach, or alleged breach of the foregoing representations and warranties by Seller.

6. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION/CONFIDENTIALITY-ADVERTISING

This paragraph shall also apply to drawings, specifications, or other documents prepared by Seller for Buyer in connection with this purchase order. Unless identified in writing by Seller as confidential, no commercial, financial or technical information disclosed in any manner or at any time by Seller to Buyer shall be deemed secret or confidential, and Seller shall have no rights against Buyer with respect thereto.
7. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR

9.INSPECTION/TESTING

Buyer may charge Seller all expenses of unpacking, examining, repacking and reshipping nonconforming goods. In the event Buyer receives goods whose defects or nonconformity are not apparent upon examination, Buyer reserves the right to require replacement, as well as payment of damages, if such defect or nonconformity later appears. Nothing contained in this purchase order shall relieve in any way Seller from the obligation of testing, inspection and quality control.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Buyer be liable to Seller for punitive, special, incidental, exemplary, or consequential damages. Further, in no event shall Buyer be liable for penalties of any description. Seller may not assign or subcontract any portion of this purchase order without the prior written consent of Buyer.
11. PARTS/LICENSE
If this purchase order relates to the purchase of machines or machinery, then Buyer shall have the right to purchase replacement parts, accessories, and supplies for any such machines or machinery, whenever Buyer desires. As part of the price paid under this purchase order, Seller grants Buyer the license to use any patents and processes required for the use or operation of such machines or machinery. Further, Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer, that it is the owner of, or is otherwise authorized to use, all patents, processes, specifications, information, materials, trade secrets, trademarks, and logos, in connection with any machines, machinery, replacement parts, accessories, or supplies sold to Buyer pursuant to this purchase order (the “Sold Products”), and that the use by Buyer of any or all of the Sold Products, as contemplated by this purchase order, will not infringe upon or violate, in any manner or fashion, the rights of any third party, whether located in the United States or any other part of the world.
12. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

The parties herewith agree they will not claim the protection of any other law or jurisdiction by reason of its present or future domicile, and Seller hereby irrevocably waives any immunity from said jurisdiction or legal process, as well as any affirmative defenses based upon lack of jurisdiction, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, sovereign immunity, or forum non conveniens, whether Seller possesses same now or at any time in the future.
13. MISCELLANEOUS
This purchase order, and any documents referred to on the face hereof, constitute the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements, proposals or correspondence, whether oral or written, relating to the subject of this purchase order. All claims for money due or to become due from Buyer shall be subject to deduction or set-off by Buyer by reason of any counterclaim arising out of this or any other transaction with Seller. Either party’s failure to insist on performance of any of the terms or conditions herein or to exercise any right or privilege or either party’s waiver of any breach hereunder shall not thereafter waive any other terms, conditions, or privileges, whether of the same or similar type. If any of these terms and conditions are found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of law, the enforceability of the remaining terms and conditions shall not be affected thereby. All amendments must be in writing and signed by both parties hereto. In the event that Buyer is required to enforce this purchase order with the assistance of an attorney, including, but not limited to, the collection of any amounts owed to it, then, in any such event, Seller shall pay Buyer’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, if Buyer is the prevailing party.
