In the event the Product or the tender of delivery of the Product does not conform to the requirements of this Order, in addition to any other remedies available pursuant to this Order, at law or in equity, Buyer shall have the right to:

a.Hold nonconforming Product after inspection pending a determination to accept or reject any or all of such Product;

d.Title and risk of loss of nonconforming Product shall revert to Seller upon shipment by Buyer if the nonconforming Product is returned to Seller.

7.TIME: Time is of the essence in Seller’s performance of this Order.

8.DELIVERY DATES: Delivery dates in this Order are the dates Product is to be delivered to the delivery point stated in the Order, unless such delivery dates are specified in this Order as being estimates, in which case the actual delivery dates shall be provided by Buyer’s authorized representative as early as practicable, and if not provided prior to the estimated delivery dates, then the estimated delivery dates shall become the actual delivery dates (“Delivery Dates”). Any schedule relief or adjustment must be approved by Buyer’s authorized representative. If Seller tenders a Product for delivery more than ten (10) days before the applicable Delivery Date, Buyer may, in its absolute discretion, either: (i) return the Product to Seller and require redelivery on the Delivery Date, all at Seller’s expense and risk; or (ii) retain the Product and make payment in accordance with the original delivery/payment schedule set forth in the Order, regardless of the actual Delivery Date.

The Parties agree this amount is reasonable in the light of the anticipated or actual harm caused by delays in delivery and the difficulties of proof of damages.  The liquidated damages provided for by this subsection 9.c shall be without prejudice to any other rights and remedy of Buyer with respect to Seller’s delay.

10.NOTICE OF LABOR DISPUTES: Whenever an actual or potential labor dispute is delaying or threatening to delay the performance of this Order, Seller shall immediately give written notice to Buyer disclosing all relevant information.

If any change under this Section causes an increase or decrease in the cost of or the time required for performance of Seller’s obligations under this Order, an equitable adjustment to the price and/or the delivery schedule shall be agreed to in writing by the Parties. Seller must submit in writing to Buyer within seventy-two (72) hours after receipt of the notice of change, or such other period of time agreed to by Buyer, any proposal for adjustment.

Notwithstanding any pending proposal for adjustment, Seller shall proceed diligently with the performance of the change as directed by Buyer. Seller shall make no change in the drawings, design, specifications or manufacturing or assembly processes, unless such change has been expressly accepted by prior written approval of Buyer. If Seller fails to obtain Buyer’s written approval of a change in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence prior to delivering a modified Product, then Buyer may reject the affected Product and pursue all available rights and remedies provided in this Order, at law or in equity.

However, nothing in this Section 11 shall excuse Seller from proceeding with the Order as changed.

12.INVOICES: Seller shall not invoice for a Product prior to delivering the Product.
