TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE

These terms and conditions govern the sale of products (“Products”) and the Provision of services (“Services”) by E I L Company Limited and its subsidiaries in the Asia/Pacific region (“Seller”). These terms and conditions (“Conditions”) take precedence over Buyer’s terms and conditions including any supplemental or conflicting terms and conditions to which notice of objection is hereby given. Acceptance by Buyer is limited to these terms and conditions. Neither Seller’s commencement of performance nor delivery shall be deemed or constituted as acceptance of Buyer’s supplemental or conflicting terms and conditions. Buyer’s acceptance of delivery of the Products/Services from Seller shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of these Conditions.

1. Orders   All orders placed by Buyer are subject to acceptance by Seller. Orders may not be cancelled or rescheduled without Seller’s written consent. All orders must include delivery dates, quantities, approved vendors and complete description of Products being purchased. Seller may in its sole discretion allocate Product among its Customers. Seller may designate certain Products as non-cancellable, non-returnable (“NCNR”) or customer specific (“CS”) Products for reasons of obsolescence and/or non-standard character and/or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any order of such Products shall constitute a firm order which is non-cancellable and non-reschedulable, and, except for returns made in accordance with the applicable manufacturer’s warranty, the Products are non-returnable for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, any force majeure. Any delays by Seller in delivering NCNR or CS Products (i) that are due to manufacturer’s lead times or to any cause beyond Seller’s reasonable control shall not give rise to liability on the part of Seller, and (ii) shall not affect the binding character of this Agreement nor Buyer’s commitments hereunder. Buyer’s liability to Seller for NCNR or CS Products shall be the aggregate of the full purchase price of all such Products: (a) already shipped to Buyer, and/or (b) held in Seller’s inventory for Buyer, and/or (c) manufactured, in whole or in part, by E I L ’s supplier. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any order for cut or broken tape, mini-reels or other customized parts shall be deemed NCNR. Given the special nature of such an order, Seller reserves the right to cancel any such NCNR or CS order within 7 business days following delivery of Seller’s order acknowledgement. The sale of NCNR or CS Products may alternatively be subject to the special terms and conditions contained in Seller’s Special Product Agreement, which shall prevail and supersede any inconsistent terms and conditions contained herein or elsewhere.

2. Prices   (a) The prices of the Products are those specified in Seller’s invoice for the relevant Products. Pricing for undelivered Products may be increased in the event of any increase in Seller’s costs, change in market conditions or any other causes beyond Seller’s reasonable control.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Seller, all prices quoted are exclusive of transportation and insurance costs, duties, and all taxes including, but not limited to Goods and Services Tax or Value Added Tax. Buyer agrees to pay these taxes unless the Seller agrees in writing that the sale is exempted. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless for any liability for tax in connection with the sale, as well as the collection or withholding thereof, including penalties and interest thereon. When applicable, transportation and taxes shall appear as separate items on Seller’s invoice.

3. Payment   (a) The payment term shall be specified in the Seller’s quotation or otherwise agreed in respect of the Transaction. Seller may invoice each shipment separately and each shipment shall be considered a separate and individual contract. Buyer agrees to pay Seller’s invoice in full without any deductions or set-off. (b) Time for payment of invoices is of the essence. All late payments shall be charged interest computed on a daily basis from the due date until paid in full. Seller is entitled to receive interest at the rate of one percent (1 %) per month or the maximum rate permitted by law plus reimbursement for costs of debt collection (including reasonable legal fees of Seller and court costs) to collect full payment for Products/Services supplied . (c) Transportation charges from Seller’s facility to Buyer’s facility shall be paid by Buyer to Seller, in addition to the purchase price of the Products, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Seller. Seller will select the carrier in the absence of specific instructions by Buyer. (d) Seller reserves the right to establish or change credit or payment terms when, in Seller’s sole opinion, Buyer’s financial condition or payment record warrants it. If payment is late Seller shall not be obliged to continue performance and or to carry out any further work under the contract for delivery of the Products/Services or on any other contract with the Buyer; and if any of the Buyer’s obligations to the Seller are not fulfilled or Buyer fails to pay for Products/Services supplied, Seller may, without prejudice to other remedies available, cancel, suspend or terminate the contract for the relevant Products/Services.

Time for delivery shall not be of the essence.
