These Sale Terms and Conditions (the “Agreement”) set-forth the terms and conditions upon which Titus, a division of Air System Components, Inc. (“Seller”) may sell goods, materials, supplies and/or work, as described in Seller’s quotations (collectively referred to herein as “Goods”) submitted by Seller and accepted by the party identified on the purchase orders (“Buyer”). Any difference or additional terms in Buyers purchase orders or any other document, whether pre-printed or otherwise, are specifically excluded. This Agreement will supercede all previous communications, agreements or contracts, written or verbal, and no understanding, agreement, term, condition, or trade custom at variance will be binding on Seller. No waiver or modification of the terms and conditions hereof will be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties. In considerations set forth below, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:

  1. Acceptance: No purchase order will be binding on Seller unless and until accepted in writing by an authorized employee of Seller. Any terms and conditions of Buyer’s purchase order or other similar instrument, which are different from, in addition to or inconsistent with Seller’s terms and conditions are expressly rejected by Seller, will not be binding on Seller and will not apply to any transactions contemplated hereunder, unless specifically agreed to in writing by Seller.

  1. Terms of Payment and Interest: Unless otherwise agreed to by Seller, terms of payment are net thirty (30) days from invoice date with credit approval. If Seller delivers Goods to Buyer in lots, Seller may invoice Buyer for each lot. Buyer will pay interest on all past due sums at the highest rate allowed by law. The extension of credit to Buyer notwithstanding, Seller may, in its sole discretion, require Buyer to make full payment of the purchase price prior to shipment. Seller may suspend credit and refuse shipment whenever Seller, in its sole discretion, believes Buyer’s credit is unsatisfactory, unless Buyer then makes arrangements for payment, which are satisfactory to Seller.

  1. Pricing: Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, pricing will be Seller’s then current list price for the Goods.

  1. Taxes: Unless specifically states, prices do not include sales, use, excise or other similar taxes or duties. If Seller is required to pay any taxes on the Goods or services furnished hereunder, then such taxes will be paid by Buyer in addition to the prices stated.

  1. Title and Risk of Loss or Damage: Title of the Goods will pass to Buyer upon payment in full. Risk of loss or damage to Goods furnished by Seller hereunder shall pass to Buyer Ex Works Seller’s designated facility (“Incoterms 2000”).
