The Final Proposal and these Terms and Conditions together shall constitute the full, complete and final agreement and understanding between Buyer and Seller with respect to the supply of Products and/or the provision of Services by or through Seller. These Terms and Conditions together the Final Proposal constitute the “Agreement”, provided, however, that to the extent there is any conflict between these Terms and Conditions and the Final Proposal, the provisions of the Final Proposal shall control over the provisions of these Terms and Conditions. All Products supplied and all Services provided by or through Seller will be deemed to be supplied and provided solely upon and subject to the provisions of the Agreement, unless Buyer and Seller have negotiated and signed a separate formal written agreement for the supply of Products and/or the provision of Services that specifically refers to the Agreement and expressly states that it controls over the Agreement (an “Other Agreement”), in which event, if there should be any conflict between such Other Agreement and the Agreement, the provisions of such Other Agreement will control, but solely with respect to the particular Products supplied and/or the particular Services provided under such Other Agreement. b. Seller objects to and rejects any provisions of any documentation submitted by or on behalf of Buyer, including but not limited to, any request for proposal, statement of work, purchase order, terms and conditions, release or shipping documents (“Buyer Documentation”), that differ from the provisions of the Agreement. No acknowledgement or acceptance by Seller of any Buyer Documentation shall create an Other Agreement or otherwise constitute acceptance of or agreement to any provisions of any Buyer Documentation that differ from the provisions of the Agreement. Seller’s acknowledgment of Buyer Documentation shall merely constitute an acknowledgement of Seller’s receipt of such Buyer Documentation and Seller’s acceptance of Buyer Documentation shall merely constitute an acknowledgement of the particular Products and/or Services ordered by Buyer, the dates requested by Buyer for shipment or delivery of such Products and/or performance of such Services, the instructions of Buyer for shipment of such Products, and/or the price to be paid for such Products and/or Services, in each case, (i) only to the extent consistent with the provisions of the Agreement and (ii) without constituting acceptance of or agreement to any terms or conditions set forth or referenced in such purchase order that differ from the provisions of the Agreement. c. The Agreement may be amended, modified or superseded only in a written instrument signed by Buyer and Seller that specifically refers to the Agreement and expressly states that it amends the Agreement.

2. Orders and Releases.
Once accepted by Seller, an order or release from Buyer for Products or Services may be suspended, delayed or cancelled by Buyer only with the written approval of Seller. Seller may impose cancellation and other charges in connection with the suspension, delay or cancellation of an order or release for Products and Services, and, in addition to any other rights and remedies, may require that Buyer (i) purchase from Seller any and all completed custom or non-standard Products produced for such order or release, and any quantities of other completed Products produced for such order or release that exceed the quantities of such other Products that can be readily sold by Seller to third parties, and (ii) reimburse Seller for its inventory cost of any and all work-in-process, materials, components or parts for such order or release that cannot be readily used or reworked for other products that can be readily sold by Seller to third parties, any reworking costs related to reworking work-in-process, materials, components or parts for such order or release, and any cancellation and other charges payable to suppliers of materials, components or parts for such order or release.

In the event Seller pays any freight, shipping, special packaging or handling, insurance, or taxes, levies, duties, tariffs, customs or other fees or charges that are the responsibility of Buyer, Seller may invoice Buyer therefor.

Title and all risk of loss or damage to each Product shall pass to Buyer upon deposit of such Product with the carrier for shipment, and Seller shall have no liability or responsibility for any loss or damage to a Product after such Product is deposited with the carrier for shipment. If Buyer requests a delay in shipment of Products, Seller may impose storage and handling charges in connection with the delay. Any claim that the wrong Product or the wrong quantity of Product was shipped must be asserted within 30 days of the date of shipment, and, unless written notice of a wrong Product or a wrong quantity of Product is received by Seller within 30 days after the date of shipment, Buyer shall be barred from asserting any claim for wrong Product or wrong quantity of Product in connection with a shipment.
