Neither Seller's commencement or performance nor delivery shall be deemed or construed as acceptance of Buyer’s additional or different terms and conditions.

Order and Order Acceptance

All orders for Seller’s products (“Products”) shall be made by written purchase order sent to Seller, or by fax, e-mail, or via the web. All purchase orders shall be deemed to reference these terms and conditions. No purchase order shall be binding upon Seller until accepted in a sales order (“Sales Order”) duly issued by Seller, and Seller shall have no liability to Buyer with respect to purchase orders that are not so accepted by Seller. Buyer shall submit purchase orders to Seller in accordance with Seller’s lead times then in effect.

Requests for quotes can be sent to Seller by fax, e-mail, or via the web. Seller will issue quotes in writing to Buyer based on current pricing and availability. Quotes are not binding upon the Seller.

Pricing

All quoted pricing is valid for thirty (30) days from issuance of quote. If the shipment date of the Products is not within ninety (90) days of the date of the Sales Order, all prices set forth in the Sales Order are subject to adjustment by Seller in accordance with its pricing policies in effect at the time of shipment.

Changes

Buyer at any time, by a written order, may request changes within the general scope of this contract; however, no changes are effective without written consent of Seller.

Suspension of Work

Seller agrees to use its best efforts to meet scheduled delivery requirements.
