JEM TECH GROUP TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Revision 1.0 12/14/17

1.) These Terms and Conditions of Sale (this “Agreement”) apply to, and govern the sale of, any products (collectively, the “Products”) by JEM Tech Group and/or one of its affiliates or subsidiaries identified in the applicable quote, order document, or credit application (the “Seller”) to the applicable customer identified in such quote, order document, or credit application (“Customer”). This Agreement constitutes the entire integrated agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and applies to any subsequent purchases made by Customer from Seller. Any and all prior or contemporaneous discussions, understandings, agreements, representations, courses of dealing, customs, and usages of trade heretofore made or engaged in by the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof are not binding. This Agreement, alone fully and completely expresses the parties’ agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller and Customer are parties to a mutually executed and negotiated agreement that governs the supply and use of the Products (the “Existing Agreement”), the terms and conditions of such Existing Agreement supersede this Agreement for the specific purpose set forth therein. Seller objects to and is not bound by any additional or different terms, whether printed or otherwise, in any purchase order or other communication from Customer to Seller, unless specifically agreed to in a separate writing signed by the parties and only with respect to those Products intended to be covered by that executed document. The execution of a Customer order document does not, in and of itself, evidence Seller’s assent to any terms and conditions contained or referenced thereon. Such additional or different terms constitute a material alteration of this Agreement, and Customer accepts this Agreement without such additional or different terms. Seller has the right to periodically update this Agreement. Each revision will be identified by the next revision number and effective date. Any subsequent revisions will be effective only to quotes or orders issued on or after the date of the revision to such terms and conditions. Customer’s acceptance or use of the Products constitutes acceptance of this Agreement.

2.) Any change in Product specifications, quantities, destinations, shipping schedules, or any other aspect of the scope of goods must be agreed to in writing by Seller and may result in a price and delivery adjustment by Seller. If all or part of the contract is terminated by modification or rescission, Customer, in the absence of a contrary written agreement between Seller and Customer, shall pay termination charges equal to Seller’s costs associated with the contract, as determined by generally accepted accounting principles, plus a reasonable profit on the entire contract. Cost shall include any amount Seller must pay to its suppliers due to any termination by Seller of a purchase order or contract for Products intended for Customer. If Customer orders any Special Stock Products (as defined herein) from Seller, Customer will not be able to cancel such order if the Special Stock Product is already in Seller’s possession or in transit to Seller, plus Customer shall pay for any manufacturer cancellation charges for unshipped items. The term “Special Stock Product” means any inventory from Seller that Seller produces or procures for Customer and such inventory is nonstandard or not readily saleable to other customers of Seller. Seller may, in its discretion, require an advance deposit of up to 100% of Seller’s selling price for any Special Stock Product ordered by Customer hereunder.

3.) Payment of the purchase price for Products sold by Seller to Customer shall be in the amounts set forth on each invoice, and Customer shall pay all charges in accordance with the amounts established in said invoices. The entire outstanding balance due to Seller on all invoices is due in full immediately upon default in the payment of any invoice. Customer shall pay a service charge of $50.00 or the maximum allowed by law for each check returned by Customer’s bank. In addition, if Customer fails to pay all charges in accordance with this Agreement, Customer shall pay Seller all costs and expenses of collection, suit, or other legal action brought as a result of non-payment, including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and collection costs, incurred pre-suit, through trial, on appeal, and in any administrative or bankruptcy proceedings.

4.) Customer shall pay the purchase price for Products within 30 days of receipt of each invoice, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing. If Customer fails to pay the total purchase price within the time indicated above or other written agreement, interest at the rate of 7% per annum shall be applied to all past due accounts commencing from the due date of the invoice until paid. Seller shall also be entitled, in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and/or other expenses in collecting the purchase price or otherwise enforcing or successfully defending itself in respect of this Agreement. Cash discounts do not apply to any transaction unless agreed to by JEM Tech Group in writing. The purchase price for the Products is F.O.B. first point of shipment, unless otherwise agreed to in writing. Seller may set off any amount due from Customer to Seller, whether or not under this Agreement, from any amounts due to Customer. Title to and risk of loss of the Products pass to Customer upon delivery to the carrier at the F.O.B. shipping point. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, title to any software associated with a Product shall not pass to Customer and, strictly to the extent permissible under any license agreement related to such software, Customer shall be granted a limited license to use the software in connection with the Product, strictly in accordance with the license agreement, and Customer agrees to be bound by any license terms pertaining to software associated with a Product sold hereunder. To the extent permitted under applicable law, Customer agrees to defend and indemnify Seller, including paying for Seller’s reasonable attorneys’ fees for counsel of Seller’s choosing, from any claims or lawsuits in which it is alleged that such license agreement was breached or violated by reason of the actions of Customer.

5.) Seller will not accept returns of Products or the taking of financial credits by Customer unless previously authorized by Seller via a written Return Material Authorization (“RMA”).

6.) If Customer is providing a forecast or requiring Seller to stock Products, Customer acknowledges that it is responsible for all excess and obsolete inventory, including, but not limited to, any inventory that is held by Seller and not consumed by Customer (a) prior to the discontinuation of usage of a particular part number, or (b) during the preceding six-month period (collectively, “E&O”). Seller reserves the right to call a Periodic Business Review (“PBR”) which shall be attended by representatives of both parties for the purpose of E&O analysis and disposition. Resolution for E&O inventory shall be completed within ten days of the PBR unless otherwise agreed upon at the PBR.

7.) Prices on Seller’s website, catalogs or in Seller quotes are subject to change without notice. All prices listed on a Seller quote will be deemed to expire and become invalid if not accepted within ten calendar days from the date of issue, unless otherwise noted by Seller in writing. Seller, in its sole discretion, may extend such ten-day period; however, such extensions of pricing, if made, are for Customer’s convenience only and Seller shall be free at any time after such initial ten-day period to adjust the prices contained on such quote. In addition, any mathematical, stenographic or clerical errors are not binding on Seller. Except where specifically stated by Seller, prices shown do not include any sales, excise, or other governmental tax or charge payable by Seller to any federal, state or local authority. Any tax or other governmental charge upon the provision of services, or the production, sale, shipment, transfer, consumption, or use of the Products which Seller is required to pay or collect from Customer shall be paid by Customer to Seller at the time of payment for the Product, unless Customer furnishes Seller with exemption certificates acceptable to taxing authorities. Such amount shall be due whether or not included on the invoice.

8.) Shipping date or other applicable performance date is estimated on the basis of immediate receipt by Seller of Customer’s order and all information, drawings and approvals to be furnished by Customer, and the absence of delays, direct or indirect, resulting from or contributed to by circumstances beyond Seller’s reasonable control. Seller will in good faith endeavor to ship Products or perform services by the estimated date. Seller shall have the right to make partial shipments. All changes in specifications or the shipping or performance date requested by Customer will only be effective if set forth in a writing signed by the parties, and where such changes affect Seller’s time or cost of performance, an equitable adjustment in estimated shipping/performance date or purchase price, or both, will be made. If no packaging, loading or bracing requirements are stated, Seller will comply with minimum specifications for the method of transportation specified. If no method of transportation is specified, shipment will be by a reasonable method of transportation determined by Seller in its sole discretion.

9.) Customer shall promptly submit all claims for shortages in writing to Seller once Customer receives the Products; otherwise such claims shall be waived. The purchase price for Products will equal the unit price multiplied by the quantity shipped. Claims for shipping errors or shortages must be submitted in writing, along with a copy of the packing slip and bill of lading to JEM Tech Group no later than 15 (fifteen) days from invoice date. Any damage to merchandise, concealed or otherwise, must be reported to the carrier immediately, and in no event, shall exceed five (5) days. A written confirmation of this request for inspection should be mailed to the carrier with copies retained by the consignee.
