Performance Film and Tape General Terms and Conditions of Sale

Seller and Buyer Definitions: In these General Terms and Conditions of Sale (the “Terms”) Performance Film and Tape is referred to as “Seller.” The party to whom Seller’s quotation, sales order, order confirmation packing slip, delivery receipt, or invoice is addressed is referred to as “Buyer.” Seller and Buyer are collectively referred to as the “Parties” and are individually referred to a “Party.”
Incorporation: The Terms are incorporated by reference into all of Seller’s quotations, sales orders, order confirmations, packing slips, e-mail communications, invoices and sales to Buyer.
Quotations; Purchase Orders; Confirmation/acknowledgement of Orders: Seller’s written quotations automatically expire 30 days after the date issued unless otherwise specified in the quotation. A verbal quotation expires on the day that it was made. All quotations are subject to the Terms. Buyer’s purchase order is for information purposes only. Seller’s order confirmation/acknowledgement confirms only that Seller has received Buyer’s purchase order for product and is not acceptance of Buyer’s terms and conditions.
Entire Agreement; Amendment; Waiver: Seller’s quotation, sales order, order confirmation, packing slips, email, communications, invoice, and the Terms constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the sale of Seller’s products to Buyer (the “Agreement”) and supersede all other representations, terms, conditions, agreements or understandings, written or oral, between the Parties with respect to such sale. Any terms, conditions or other provisions contained in any request for quotation, purchase order, e-mail or other communication from Buyer that are in addition to or inconsistent with the Agreement (collectively “Buyer Provisions”) are of no force and effect and are not binding upon Seller unless Seller’s Sales Manager accepts such terms, conditions or other provisions in a signed writing that specifically refers to any such Buyer Provisions. The Agreement cannot be amended orally or by any course of conduct by either Party, but may only be amended by a further written agreement fully executed by the Parties. Seller’s failure or delay to enforce any provision of the Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of such provision or Seller’s right to enforce such provision. Seller’s failure or delay to object to any Buyer Provisions shall not be construed as a waiver, amendment or modification of the Agreement, nor an acceptance of any such Buyer Provisions.
Prices: Pricing errors by Seller are subject to correction prior to Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s order confirmation/acknowledgement. Seller’s prices do not include any transportation, freight or storage costs or any applicable property, sales, use, privilege or export taxes, custom duties or any other tax, fee or charge of any nature whatsoever imposed by any government authority on or measured by any transaction between the Parties, all of which are Buyer’s sole responsibility. If any of the foregoing must be prepaid by Seller, Buyer shall pay such amounts no later than the time at which payment for the goods is due.
Payment: Terms of payment are the net amount of the invoice in United States currency within 30 days of the date of the invoice, unless otherwise stated in writing in Seller’s invoice. A late payment charge of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the amount of the invoice will be charged for each month, or any portion thereof, that payment is not made within 30 days after the date of the invoice, unless otherwise stated in writing in Seller’s invoice. Business Buyers that are extended credit terms may be subject to a credit card surcharge in the event a credit card is used to pay an invoice after the extension of terms, where imposing such surcharge is not in violation of state or local law. Any credit card surcharge shall not exceed Seller’s actual cost of processing and business Buyer shall be clearly notified of the surcharge and reason for the surcharge. Business Buyer understands this charge and agrees it is a reasonable term as part of the extension of credit.
Shipment; Shortages; Delay; Risk of Loss; Inspection and Acceptance: Shipment dates are estimates only. Seller shall have no liability if shipment is made after the estimated dates. Seller may make delivery installments, separately invoiced, which shall be payable without regard to subsequent deliveries. Delay in delivery of any installment will not relieve Buyer of its obligations to accept and pay for any other installments. If shipments are delayed by Buyer, Seller’s invoices may be rendered on the dates Seller is prepared to make shipments. If completion of manufacture is delayed by Buyer, Seller’s invoices may be rendered when delay is ascertained, based upon percentage of completion. Products will be shipped f.o.b. point of origin, with all risk of loss or damage to products passing to Buyer upon delivery to carrier; provided, however, that products held by Seller as a result of Buyer’s inability or refusal to accept delivery will be held at Buyer’s sole risk, cost and expense. Within 30 days after receipt of the products, Buyer shall inspect the goods and report to Seller in writing any claim for shortage, damage or non-conformity, and if Buyer fails to do so, Buyer waives any such claim and shall be deemed to have accepted the products without further right of revocation.
Force Majeure: Seller will not be liable for any delay or failure in performance of the Agreement, including without limitation, the delivery or shipment of any product or for any damages or losses suffered by Buyer or any third party which are caused by, or in any manner arise from, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any labor disturbances, embargos, riots, storms, fires, explosions, acts of God or public enemies, inability to obtain necessary labor or materials, accidents or breakdown to, or mechanical failure of, machinery or equipment, changes in economic conditions, delays or interruptions in transportation or any other causes beyond Seller’s reasonable control. In the event of such delay, the applicable shipment date(s) will be postponed to compensate for such delay. If Seller’s performance is rendered permanently impossible or impracticable either Party may cancel the affected order(s) upon written notice to the other Party, and, upon such cancellation, Seller will have no liability and Buyer will be liable to pay only for the pro-rated or allocated portion of such order(s) completed, including without limitations all inventory and supplies not returnable for full credit or otherwise usable by Seller.
Warranty: Seller’s Limited Warranty: Seller is a distributor of products manufactured by others. All products manufactured by others and sold by Seller to Buyer will be covered only by the warranty provided by the manufacturer of such products and Buyer agrees to look solely to such manufacturer and not to Seller for any warranty claims relating to such products.
