ANY SUCH TERM OR CONDITION SHALL BE TOTALLY INAPPLICABLE TO THIS ORDER UNLESS SPECIFICALLY AGREED TO IN A WRITING SIGNED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF BUYER.

ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTS BY SELLER SHALL CONSTITUTE ACCEPTANCE OF THIS ORDER AND ALL OF ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS: SIGNING AND RETURNING A COPY OF THIS ORDER; DELIVERY OF ANY OF THE GOODS OR SERVICES ORDERED; INFORMING THE BUYER IN ANY MANNER OF COMMENCEMENT OF PERFORMANCE; OR RETURNING SELLERS OWN FORM OF ACKNOWLEDGMENT. ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS STATED ON THE FACE OF THE ORDER SHALL TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER ALL OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
2. PRICES. Seller warrants that the prices to be charged for products or services identified on the face hereof are not in excess of prices charged to other customers for similar quantities and delivery requirements.

3. INVOICES. Payment of invoices shall not constitute acceptance of the product or services and shall be subject to adjustment for errors, shortages, defects in the product or other failure of Seller to meet the requirements of the Order. Buyer may at any time set off any amount owed by Buyer to Seller against any amount owed by Seller or any of its affiliated companies to Buyer.
4. TAXES. Unless otherwise specified, the prices set forth in this Order include all applicable federal, state, and local taxes. All such taxes shall be stated separately on Sellers invoice.

8. RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUPPLIES. Notwithstanding any prior inspections and irrespective of the delivery point, the Seller shall bear all risk of loss, damage, or destruction to the products called for hereunder until final acceptance by Buyer at destination. Further, the Seller shall also bear the same risks with respect to any products rejected by Buyer, provided, however, that in either case the Buyer shall be responsible for any loss occasioned by the gross negligence of its employees acting within the scope of their employment.
9. WARRANTY. Seller warrants that all products and services delivered hereunder shall be free from defects in workmanship, material and manufacture; shall comply with the requirements of this contract, including any drawings or specifications or samples furnished by Seller; and, where design is Sellers responsibility, be free from defects in design. Seller further warrants all products purchased hereunder shall be of merchantable quality and shall be fit and suitable for the purposes intended by Buyer. The foregoing warranties shall constitute conditions and are in addition to all other warranties, whether expressed or implied, and shall survive delivery, inspection, acceptance and payment. If any products delivered hereunder do not meet the warranties specified herein or otherwise applicable, Buyer may at its election (i) require the Seller to promptly correct, at no cost to Buyer, any defective or nonconforming products by repair or replacement, at the location as specified by Buyer, or (ii) return such defective or nonconforming products at Sellers expense to the Seller, and recover from the Seller the Order price thereof. The foregoing remedies are in addition to all other remedies at law in equity or under this Order, for damages or otherwise and shall be deemed to be exclusive. Buyers approval of the Sellers product or design shall not relieve Seller of the warranties set forth in this clause. The provisions of this clause shall not limit or affect the rights of Buyer under the clause hereof entitled Inspection.
10. INSPECTION. All products purchased hereunder shall be subject to inspection and test by Buyer to the extent practicable at all times and places during and after the period of manufacture and in any event prior to final acceptance. In case any product is defective in material or workmanship, or otherwise not in conformity with the requirements of this Order, Buyer shall have the right either to reject it, require its correction, or conditionally accept it. Buyer reserves the right to return such conditionally accepted products for credit, within a reasonable period of time after receipt in the event that Buyer determines that such products are unsuitable for its purpose. Any product that has been rejected or required to be corrected shall be replaced or corrected by and at the expense of the Seller promptly after notice. If, after being requested by Buyer, the Seller fails to promptly replace or correct any defective product within the delivery schedule Buyer may (i) at its option, by contract or otherwise replace or correct such product and charge the Seller the cost occasioned thereby or (ii) without further notice terminate this Order for default in accordance with the clause herein entitled Termination for Default or (iii) may utilize the defective product and require an appropriate reduction in price. Notwithstanding any prior inspection or payment hereunder, all products shall also be subject to final inspection and acceptance at Buyers plant within a reasonable time after delivery.
11. CHANGES IN PROCESS OR METHOD OF MANUFACTURING. Seller agrees that it will not make changes in the process, location, or method of manufacturing during the term of this Order without Buyers written consent. Seller further agrees that any contemplated changes in process or method of manufacturing will be submitted to Buyer in sufficient time to enable Buyer a reasonable opportunity in which to evaluate such changes.
12. CHANGES. The Buyer may at any time by written order, and without notice to sureties or assignees, suspend performance hereunder, increase or decrease the ordered quantity or make changes in the applicable drawings, designs or specification, the method of shipment or packing, and/or place of delivery. If any such change causes an increase or decrease in the cost of or the time required for performance of this Order, an equitable adjustment shall be made in the Order price or delivery schedule or both, and the Order shall be modified in writing accordingly. However, nothing in this clause shall excuse Seller from proceeding with the Order as changed or amended.
13. TERMINATION FOR DEFAULT. It is understood and agreed that time is of the essence under this Order or any extension thereof effected by any change order. Buyer may by written notice terminate this Order in whole or in part if the Seller fails (i) to make delivery of the product or to perform the service within the time specified herein, or (ii) to replace or correct defective products in accordance with the provision of those clauses hereof entitled Warranty and Inspection or, (iii) to perform any of the provisions of this Order or to so fail to make progress as to endanger performance in accordance with the terms hereof, including delivery schedules, or (iv) if Seller becomes insolvent, admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature, files a voluntary petition to bankruptcy, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or if a petition under bankruptcy is filed against it. In the event of termination pursuant to this clause, Buyer may procure upon such terms and in such manner as Buyer may deem appropriate, products and services similar or substantially similar to those so terminated and Seller shall be liable to Buyer for any excess costs occasioned Buyer thereby. If Buyer issues a notice of termination for default, and it is subsequently determined that Buyers termination under this clause is inappropriate, the termination shall be deemed by Buyer and Seller to have been originally issued under the clause entitled Termination for Convenience.
14. TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE. Buyer may terminate work under this Order in whole or part at any time by the giving of written notice to Seller specifying the extent to which performance of work is terminated. After such notice the Seller shall immediately stop work under this Order, and within thirty (30) days after such notice, the Seller shall submit to Buyer its written termination claim. Failure of the Seller to submit its termination claim as provided herein shall constitute an unconditional and absolute waiver by the Seller of any claim arising from the Buyers notice termination. Seller shall reasonably assess its claim to determine whether or not such items may be used by Seller for the manufacture of associated products or diverted for any other purpose and to correspondingly reduce its termination claim by the value of such items. When settlement has been made title to any such items determined not usable by Seller and charged to Buyer in the termination claim shall vest in Buyer upon payment of the claim and forthwith be delivered to Buyer at Buyers expense, under Buyers shipping instructions. In no event shall Seller be entitled to special, incidental or consequential damages, costs of preparing claims, attorneys fees, cost of tooling or equipment sales or agents commissions. Buyer reserves the right to verify claims hereunder and Seller shall make available to Buyer upon its request, all relevant books, records, inventories and facilities for its inspection and audit. In the event Seller fails to reasonably afford Buyer its right hereunder then Seller shall be deemed to have relinquished its claim asserted under this clause.
15. INDEMNITY. Seller represents and warrants that (i) it has the right to disclose or use, without liability to others, all subject matter, including ideas, inventions, creations, works, processes, designs and methods that Seller will disclose or use in its performance of this Order; (ii) the products and services, and Buyers use thereof, do not and will not infringe any patent, copyright, trade secret, mask work right, or other proprietary right of others; and (iii) in connection with its performance under this Order, Seller will not infringe any patent, copyright, trade secret, mask work right, or any other proprietary right of any third party; (iii) Seller has the right and power to enter into this Order and grant the right and licenses set forth herein. Seller will indemnify, hold harmless, and at Buyers request defend Buyer from and against any loss, cost, liability or expense (including court costs and reasonable fees of attorneys and other professionals) arising out of or resulting from any breach or claimed breach of the above representations and warranties. In the event of any such claim, Buyer agrees (i) to notify Seller of the claim, (ii) if Buyer has not requested that Seller defend the claim, to permit Seller, at Sellers expense, to participate in the defense thereof with counsel of Sellers choosing, subject to Buyers supervision and control, and (iii) if Buyer has requested that Seller defend the claim, to provide Seller with all needed information, assistance and authority necessary for Seller to do so. If the use by Buyer of any of the products or services purchased under this Agreement is enjoined, or in Buyers opinion is likely to be enjoined, at Buyers request and option, and without prejudice to Buyers rights and remedies, Seller at its expense will procure from the person or persons claiming or likely to claim infringement, a license for Buyer and its customers to continue to use such products or services, or modify the allegedly infringing order to avoid the infringement, without materially impairing performance or compliance with Buyers specifications or this Order.
16. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. The Seller warrants that no law, rule or ordinance of the United States, a State or any other governmental agency has been violated in the manufacture or sale of the products or in the performance of services covered by this Order, and will defend and hold Buyer harmless from loss, cost or damage as a result of any such actual or alleged violation. Upon written request by Buyer, Seller agrees to execute and furnish a certification of compliance, which may be on Buyers form and which shall certify compliance with any applicable Federal, State and or Local Laws or Regulations, including but not limited to FLSA, EEOC, and OSHA. If and to the extent Sellers performance of its obligations hereunder, including any products and services delivered hereunder, constitute sub-tier work performed under a Government Contract, then Seller agrees to be and is hereby bound by and to comply with all FAR clauses and applicable laws and agency regulations and terms referenced in, or otherwise made a part of the contract (Government Contract) between the U.S. Government and Buyer (or the U.S. Government, its prime contractor, any sub-tier contractors and Buyer). To the extent that Buyer authorizes Seller to subsubcontract any portion of the work performed under a Government Contract, Seller agrees to flow to its subcontractors all FAR clauses and other applicable agency regulations and terms referenced in, or otherwise made a part of, the Government Contract. Seller further agrees that it will impose this requirement on all of its subcontractors.
17. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBCONTRACTORS. No right or obligation under this Order including the right to receive monies due hereunder) shall be assigned by Seller, and Seller shall not enter into any substantial subcontracts without the prior written consent of Buyer. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void and Buyer shall not be obligated to recognize any claim from Seller resulting from a subcontract, not previously consented to by Buyer.
18. SPECIAL TOOLING. If special tooling used in the performance of this Order has been charged to this Order, or to this Order and other orders placed by the Buyer, title to such special tooling shall vest in the Buyer, at the option of the Buyer. Such tooling is to be used only in the performance of such Purchase Orders unless otherwise approved by Buyer. The Seller agrees that it will follow normal industrial
practice in the identification and maintenance of property control records on all such tooling, and will make such records available for inspection by the Buyer at all reasonable times. After the termination or completion of such Order(s) and upon the request of the Buyer, the Seller shall furnish a list of such tooling in the form requested and shall make such tooling available for disposition by the Buyer.
19. APPLICABLE LAW. This Order shall be governed by and enforced in accordance with California law as applied to contracts entered into in California by California residents to be performed entirely within the State of California, regardless of any choice of law provisions.
