1. PRIORITY; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.
Seller agrees to provide to Buyer (hereinafter referred to as “BUYER”) the services (“Services”) and/or goods (“Goods”), described in any purchase order, in accordance with these General Purchase Order Terms and Conditions, hereafter referred to as the “Order”. Upon acceptance of a purchase order, shipment of Goods, or commencement of a Service, Seller shall be bound by the provisions of the Order, including all provisions set forth on the face of any applicable purchase order whether Seller acknowledges or otherwise signs the Order or the purchase order unless Seller objects to such terms in writing prior to shipping Goods or commencing Services. This writing does not constitute a firm offer and may be revoked at any time prior to acceptance. The Order may not be added to, modified, superseded, or otherwise altered, unless expressively agreed to in writing and duly executed by an authorized officer (or his/her authorized designee) of BUYER. Any terms or conditions contained in any acknowledgment, invoice, or other communication of Seller, which are inconsistent with the terms and conditions herein, are hereby rejected. To the extent that this Order might be treated as an acceptance of Seller’s prior offer, such acceptance is expressly made on condition of assent by Seller to the terms hereof and shipment of the Goods or beginning performance of any Services by Seller shall constitute such assent. BUYER hereby reserves the right to reschedule any delivery or cancel any purchase order issued at any time prior to shipment of the Goods or prior to commencement of any Services. BUYER shall not be subject to any charges or other fees because of such cancellation. The Order constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between BUYER and Seller and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, regarding the subject matter of the Order.

2. GOVERNING LAW.
The purchase order shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the state in which BUYER maintains its principal place of business (Governing State) regardless of any principles of conflicts of laws of any jurisdiction. In addition to the rights provided herein, regardless of whether Goods are being sold, leased, or licensed, or whether services are being performed. Seller and BUYER agree that both parties have all the rights, duties, and remedies available under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the Governing State. Any disputes arising under, or in connection with the purchase order will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the Governing State.

Seller shall provide certificates of insurance and endorsements to BUYER evidencing that all insurance coverage required by BUYER is in full force and effect.

19. ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE.
Seller warrants that the products sold or furnished under the Order have been and will be produced and furnished in full and complete compliance with all present and future applicable environmental laws and regulations, including but not limited to requirements, if applicable, that chemical substances furnished under the Order be reported for the EPA Toxic Substances Control Act inventory.

Seller shall protect, preserve, and deliver in accordance with BUYER’s instructions any property related to the Order in Seller’s possession and continue the performance of any work not terminated by BUYER.

BUYER may also, by written notice to Seller, terminate the whole or part of the Order for default if Seller fails to perform its obligations under the Order or if at any time BUYER has reasonable grounds to believe that Seller will not be able to perform as required by the Order. If Buyer terminated all or part of the Order for default, BUYER may procure, upon terms and in a manner it deems appropriate, Goods and Services similar to those terminated. In addition, BUYER may require Seller to deliver any completed or uncompleted Goods related to the Order by agreeing to pay Seller as specified below.

On termination by BUYER, Seller at the time of termination may have in stock or on firm order, completed or uncompleted items or raw, semi-processed, or completed materials for use in fulfilling the Order. For completed items or materials, BUYER shall either require delivery of all or part of the completed Goods and make payment at the purchase order price or, without taking delivery, pay the Seller the difference, if any, between the purchase order price and the market price (if lower) at termination. For uncompleted items or raw or semi-processed materials, BUYER shall either require Seller to deliver all or part of such Goods at the portion of the purchase order price representing the stage of completion or pay Seller the amount of the purchase order price representing the stage of completion reduced by the higher of the market or scrap value of the Goods at that stage of completion. Goods which Seller has a firm order, BUYER may, at its option, either take an assignment of Seller’s rights under the Order or pay the cost, if any, of settling or discharging Seller’s obligations under the Order. If BUYER terminates for default, Seller shall be liable for additional costs, if any, for the purchase of such similar Goods and Services to cover such default. Payment to Seller hereunder shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Seller in the event of a termination by BUYER. BUYER’s rights and remedies under this section shall not be exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under the purchase order.

21. EXCUSABLE DELAY.
Fires, floods, strikes, lockouts, epidemics, accidents, or other causes beyond the reasonable control of Seller which prevents Seller from delivering or Buyer from receiving any of the goods and services covered by the Order, shall suspend deliveries until the cause is removed, provided Seller promptly informs BUYER of the cause of the excusable delay and the estimated time of the delay, in writing, and subject to BUYER’s right of termination under the Order. If BUYER does not elect to terminate, the goods or services will be promptly delivered when the cause is removed. If the cause for delay is a failure of a part of Seller’s production facilities or a source of supply for Seller, Seller must apportion available production or supplies to provide goods and services required hereunder to BUYER on an equitable basis, and Seller must use good faith efforts to obtain an alternative source of supply.

22. SEVERABILITY.
The Order shall be enforceable to the fullest extent allowed by law. If any provision of this Order shall be deemed to be invalid, unlawful, illegal, void, or inoperative, for any reason, such provision shall be struck from the Order and otherwise the Order shall continue in full force and effect.

23. ASSIGNMENT.
BUYER may assign, transfer, or subcontract the purchase order or any right or obligation set forth in the purchase order without the consent of Seller.

Unless legally required to do so, BUYER shall not be obligated to accept the performance of the Order from any other party, including the Seller as a debtor in any case under Title 11 of the United States Code.

24. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
Seller shall comply fully with all applicable federal, state, and local laws in the performance of this Order including, but not limited to, all applicable employment, tax, export control, and environmental laws including but not limited to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, as amended, The Federal Regulations relating to Minority Business Enterprises, the Federal Acquisitions Regulations, the Anti-Kickback Act of 1986, and any law, rule or regulation pertaining to equal employment opportunity, wage payment, employer discrimination, pension benefits, health benefits, disability benefits, retirement benefits, unemployment compensation, workers compensation, health and safety, the environment, labor relations, and the use possession, sale and distribution of alcohol and drugs. BUYER reserves all rights and abilities that are necessary to its satisfactory compliance with any duties, requirements, obligations, or responsibilities that may exist under applicable law, and Seller agrees to fully cooperate with BUYER in this regard and to provide any supporting documentation that BUYER deems necessary; provided, however, that nothing stated in this Section or the Order shall impose a duty upon BUYER to monitor or insure Seller’s compliance with applicable law, which shall remain the responsibility of Seller itself.

If any change by BUYER causes an increase or decrease in the cost of, or the delivery schedule for, the Order, the Seller shall make an equitable adjustment in the contract price or delivery schedule, or both. Any claims by Seller for adjustment under this clause shall be deemed waived unless asserted in writing within ten (10) days from Seller’s receipt of change.
