Terms and Conditions of Sale

Applicability. These terms and conditions of purchase (these "Terms") are the only terms which govern the purchase of all goods ("Goods") and services ("Services") by Hi-Vac Corporation, ("Purchaser") from the seller named on any purchase order issued by Purchaser ("Seller"). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a written contract signed by both parties is in existence related to the Goods and Services covered hereby, the terms and conditions of said contract shall prevail to the extent they are inconsistent with these Terms. Unless specifically excepted herein or in a written document relating to the Goods or Services signed by Purchaser and Seller, the purchase order referencing these Terms (the "Purchase Order") and these Terms (collectively, this "Agreement") comprise the entire agreement between the parties related to Good and Services, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both written and oral. These Terms prevail over any of Seller's general terms and conditions of sale regardless whether or when Seller has submitted its sales confirmation or such terms. This Agreement expressly limits Seller's acceptance to the terms of this Agreement. Fulfillment of this Purchase Order constitutes acceptance of these Terms.
Delivery of Goods and Performance of Services.

Seller shall deliver the Goods in the quantities and on the date(s) specified in the Purchase Order or as otherwise agreed in writing by the parties (the "Delivery Date").
Seller shall deliver all Goods to the “Ship to” address specified in the Purchase Order (the "Delivery Point") during Purchaser's normal business hours or as otherwise instructed by Purchaser. Seller shall pack all in a manner sufficient to ensure that the Goods are delivered in undamaged condition. Seller must provide Purchaser prior written notice if it requires Purchaser to return any packaging material, which shall be made at Seller's risk of loss and expense.
Seller shall provide the Services to Purchaser as described and in accordance with the schedule set forth on the Purchase Order and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in these Terms.
Seller acknowledges that time is of the essence with respect to Seller's obligations hereunder and the timely delivery of the Goods and Services.

Quantity. If Seller delivers more or less than the quantity of Goods ordered, Purchaser may reject all or any excess Goods. Any such rejected Goods shall be returned to Seller at Seller's sole risk and expense. If Purchaser does not reject the Goods and instead accepts the delivery of Goods, the Price for the Goods shall be adjusted on a pro-rata basis.
Shipping Terms. Delivery shall be made FOB Delivery Point, unless otherwise specified within the terms of the Purchase Order or terms of this Agreement. The Purchase Order number must appear on all shipping documents, shipping labels, invoices, and any other documents pertaining to the Purchase Order.
Title. Title and risk of loss passes from Seller to Purchaser upon delivery of the Goods to Purchaser or the agent of Purchaser at the Delivery Point.
Inspection and Rejection of Nonconforming Goods. Purchaser has the right to inspect the Goods on or any time after the Delivery Date. Purchaser, at its sole option, may inspect all or a sample of the Goods, and may reject any portion of the Goods if it determines the Goods are nonconforming or defective.
Price. The price of the Goods and Services is the price stated in the Purchase Order (the "Price"). Unless otherwise specified in the Purchase Order, the Price includes all packaging, insurance, customs duties and fees and applicable taxes. No sales or use taxes shall be added when a valid sale or use tax exemption is noted on the Purchase Order. No increase in the Price is effective without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Seller represents that the price charged for the Goods is the lowest price charged by the Seller to purchasers of a class similar to Purchaser.
Payment Terms. Seller shall issue an invoice to Purchaser on or any time after the completion of delivery and only in accordance with these Terms. Unless agreed otherwise in writing, Purchaser shall pay all properly invoiced amounts due to Seller within 60 days after Purchaser's receipt of such invoice, except for any amounts disputed by Purchaser in good faith without prejudice to any other right or remedy it may have, Purchaser reserves the right to set off at any time any amount owing to it by Seller against any amount payable by Purchaser to Seller. The parties shall seek to resolve all such disputes expeditiously and in good faith. Seller shall continue performing its obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding any dispute.
