fill orders only upon the terms and conditions appearing below. |

|
| 1. |
ENTIRE AGREEMENT: Any of the terms and provisions of Buyer's order
which are inconsistent with the terms and provisions hereof shall
not be binding on Raycon Technology and shall not be considered
applicable to the sale of the products mentioned herein. Unless
Buyer shall notify Raycon Technology in writing to the contrary
within ten (10) days after receipt of this form, acceptance by Buyer
of these terms and conditions shall be inferred and, in the absence
of such notification, the shipment by Raycon Technology of the products
covered hereby shall be conclusively deemed to be subject to the
terms and conditions hereof. No modification hereof shall be valid
unless in writing and duly signed by a person authorized by Raycon
Technology.
|
| 2. |
PRICES:
Prices are subject to change without notice and adjustment to Raycon
Technology's prices in effect at time of order placement. Unless
otherwise specified on the order, prices are for the specific quantity
stated and do not include taxes nor charges for transportation,
handling, engineering documents, tooling, special packaging, marking
or testing.
|
| 3. |
VARIATION IN QUANTITY: Normal manufacturing processing variation
of total order quantity per item is plus 2% minus 5%. Buyer agrees
to accept and pay for overages up to 2% of item order quantities.
Orders with shipments of 95% or more of the order quantity shall
be considered complete and the Buyer shall be invoiced for the actual
quantity shipped.
|
| 4. |
MINIMUM ORDER: $100 per Order unless otherwise specified.
|
| 5. |
QUANTITY
DISCOUNTS: When quantity price discounts are quoted, they are computed
separately for each type of product or equipment, and are based
on the quantity of each type and each size ordered at any one time
for immediate delivery. If any order is reduced or canceled, it
is agreed that prices will be adjusted upward to the higher prices,
if applicable, for the uncancelled quantity.
|
| 6. |
ORDER
SCHEDULING: Orders are to be scheduled for delivery within 12 months
from order date. Products containing precious or volatile price
materials are priced for shipment within 6 months after order date
and thereafter are subject to price adjustment to the then prevailing
prices. Subject to the above time restrictions, one reschedule per
order will be allowed at no charge and a $25.00 charge shall apply
to each schedule change thereafter.
|
| 7. |
ADD-ON QUANTITIES: Change orders or additional orders for identical
items received within 7 days of the original order may be combined
for quantity price advantage, if any.
|
| 8. |
QUALITY LEVEL: Prices are based on quality levels commensurate with
normal processing. If a different quality level is required, Buyer
must specify his requirements and pay any additional costs that
may be applicable.
|
| 9. |
TAXES: Unless prohibited by statute, Buyer agrees to pay Raycon
Technology the amount of any Federal, State, City, or other tax,
import or export duty, tariff or customs charge levied by any jurisdiction
either inside or outside of the United States which Raycon Technology
may be required to pay on account of the ownership at the place
of installation, or the manufacture, transportation, sale or use
of the material and equipment which is the subject of this contract.
|
| 10. |
TERMS:
Unless otherwise stated, payment terms are net 30 days from date
of invoice, subject to approval by Raycon Technology of amount and
terms of credit. Pending correction of any objectionable credit
situation, Raycon Technology may withhold shipments without incurring
any liability to Buyer. When partial shipments are made, payments
therefore shall become due in accordance with the designated terms
of the invoice. If, at the request of Buyer, shipment is postponed
for more than 30 days, payment will become due 30 days after notice
to Buyer that products are ready for shipment. A service charge
of 1 ½% per month on the unpaid balance shall be imposed
on all accounts not paid when due.
|
| 11. |
SHIPMENT:
All shipments will be made F.O.B. the Raycon Technology factory
unless otherwise specified. In the absence of specific instructions,
Raycon Technology will select the carrier. Title to the material
shall pass to the Buyer upon delivery thereof by Raycon Technology
to the carrier or delivery service. Thereupon, the Buyer shall be
responsible thereafter. Products held for Buyer, or stored for Buyer,
shall be at the risk and expense of Buyer. Claims against Raycon
Technology for shortages must be made within 10 days after arrival
of shipment.
|
| 12. |
DELIVERY: Raycon Technology acknowledged shipping dates are approximate.
If Buyer's order does not cite desired delivery dates(s) and/or
does not expressly prohibit delivery in advance of schedule date(s),
Buyer agrees that immediate delivery is acceptable. If conditions
arise which prevent compliance with delivery schedules, Raycon Technology
shall not be liable for any damage, general, consequential or otherwise,
for delay in delivery, or for failure to give notice of delay, and
such delay shall not constitute grounds for cancellation. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Raycon Technology shall
under no circumstances be responsible for failure to fill any orders
when due to failure to obtain export licenses, fires, floods, earthquakes,
riots, strikes, freight embargoes or transportation delays, shortage
or labor, inability to secure fuel, material supplies or power or
other energy requirements or on account of shortages thereof; acts
of God or of the public enemy, any existing or future laws or acts
of the Federal or of any State Government (including specifically,
but not exclusively, any orders, rules or regulations issued by
any official of any such government) affecting the conduct of Raycon
Technology's business which Raycon Technology in its judgment and
discretion deems it advisable to comply with either as a legal or
patriotic duty, or to any other cause beyond Raycon Technology's
reasonable control.
|
| 13. |
ENERGY: The price, specifications and delivery schedules set forth
in this order assume that materials and energy will continue to
be available at not less than present levels. And that Raycon Technology
and its subcontractors and suppliers will continue to have any of
the foregoing as a direct or indirect result of the situation commonly
known as the "Energy Crisis," whether resulting from Governmental
action or otherwise, shall render this order subject to equitable
adjustment as to delivery to reflect the impact thereof, to the
extent that any such reduction has a material effect on Raycon Technology's
costs, the price will be subject to equitable adjustment.
|
| 14. |
INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE: Unless Buyer notifies Raycon Technology
in writing within 30 days from the date of shipment of any products
that said products are rejected, they will be deemed to have been
accepted by Buyer. In order for the notice of rejection to be effective,
it must also specify the reason(s) why the products are being rejected.
