These Terms supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both written and oral with respect to the purchase and sale of the Products. These Terms prevail over any of Customer’s general terms and conditions of purchase, regardless of whether or when Customer has submitted its purchase order or such terms. Fulfillment of Customer’s order does not constitute acceptance of any of Customer’s terms and conditions, and does not serve to modify or amend these Terms. No amendment, alteration, waiver or cancellation of this Agreement is binding on the Company unless confirmed by the Company in writing. The Customer acknowledges that no employee or agent of the Company has any right to make any representation, warranty or promise in relation to the Products or the sale of the Products, other than as contained in these Terms.

Scope of Agreement: Company, upon acceptance of an Order placed by Customer, will supply the Products specified in the Order (the “Work”) to Customer, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

  4. Prices and Payments: Prices are determined at the time of order and will be set forth in the relevant Order; future prices are subject to change without notice.

If Customer shall fail to give such notice, the Products shall be deemed to be accepted by Customer. If Customer timely notifies Company of any Nonconforming Products, Company shall in its sole discretion, (i) replace such Nonconforming Products with conforming Products, or (ii) credit or refund the price for such Nonconforming Products returned by Customer, together with any reasonable shipping and handling expenses incurred by Customer in connection therewith.
