Terms and Conditions of Sale

1. ACCEPTANCE: The following terms and conditions shall govern all sales of equipment and products (“Equipment”) and/or services (“Services”) of Lift-Rite. (“Seller”) pursuant to a quotation/proposal issued by Seller to buyer (“Buyer”) and signed by Buyer and Seller or a purchase order or other similar documentation issued by Buyer to Seller and accepted by Seller in writing (each, an “Order”). These terms and conditions will not apply to an Order if Buyer and Seller have entered into a separate written purchase and/or service agreement negotiated and signed by both Buyer and Seller and specifically identified in an Order, otherwise these terms and conditions supersede all prior or other written or oral agreements, understandings and representations between Buyer and Seller and together with an Order, comprise the entire agreement between Buyer and Seller with respect to the subject matter of such Order. Any inconsistent, conflicting or additional terms in Buyer’s purchase order or acknowledgement form or other similar documentation shall not apply to an Order. If the Buyer and Seller have not otherwise agreed to these terms and conditions, the shipment of any Equipment or the commencement of performance of any Services by the Seller will be deemed an acceptance by the parties of these terms and conditions, whichever occurs first. Subject to Section 12 of these terms and conditions, any quotation/proposal provided to Buyer is only valid for 30 days and thereafter is void. All sales of Equipment and Services are subject to credit approval.

2. TERMS OF PAYMENT: The purchase price of Equipment shipped or installed is due net 30 days from the date of invoice and for Services 30 days from date of invoice, unless a different due date is specified in a written document signed by an authorized representative of Seller. Each shipment or delivery of Equipment or performance of Services is a separate and independent transaction for which an invoice may be issued by Seller and payment must be made by Buyer in accordance with these terms and conditions. If Buyer fails to fulfill the terms of payment of any prior invoice submitted by Seller or if in the sole discretion of Seller, Buyer’s financial condition becomes impaired or unsatisfactory, Seller reserves the right to change, with or without notice, the terms of payment and/or delay or discontinue delivery of the Equipment or performance of Services without prejudice to any other available legal remedies, until past due obligations are paid and Seller has received acceptable assurance regarding Buyer’s prompt payment of future obligations. Late payments for Equipment and/or Services are subject to an interest charge of the lesser of the rate of 24% per annum, the annual rate of interest specified in the invoice or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Buyer is liable to Seller for any expenses incurred to collect past due amounts, including reasonable legal fees and court costs. In the event of Buyer’s bankruptcy or insolvency, Seller is entitled to terminate any outstanding orders and to receive reimbursement for any costs and expenses incurred by Seller due to such termination. Buyer waives any right of set-off against any amount owed at any time by Buyer to Seller against any amount owed by Seller to Buyer.

In the event that the Buyer has entered into an arrangement with a third-party to secure financing to fund any payments due by Buyer to Seller under the Order, notwithstanding any terms provided by such third party, the Buyer will remain responsible for the performance of all obligations (including, without limitation all payment obligations) contained in the Order, including those contained in these Terms and Conditions. In the event the third party fails to make any payment on behalf of Buyer when due to Seller in accordance with the Order and these Terms and Conditions, the Buyer shall pay the Seller directly upon receipt of a notice of non-receipt issued by the Seller to the Buyer. Such payment shall be made by Buyer to Seller within 10 days of the date of the notice issued by Seller.

3. CANCELLATION OF ORDER BY BUYER: If for any reason it becomes necessary for Buyer to cancel an Order placed with and accepted by Seller, it can be canceled only upon Seller’s consent and in such event Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller against all costs, expenses and losses in connection with such cancellation.

4. FORCE MAJEURE: The Equipment and Services quoted are subject to prior sale. Seller is excused from its obligations under an Order and these terms and conditions to the extent performance is delayed or prevented by strikes, accidents, fires, delays of carriers and other transportation disruptions, or other causes beyond Seller’s reasonable control.

5. TITLE AND SHIPMENT: Unless otherwise agreed to in writing all prices for Equipment shipped to Buyer are F.O.B. Shipping Point, whether such Equipment is shipped from Seller’s facilities or directly from the manufacturer. Method and route of shipment are at Seller’s or the manufacturer’s discretion, unless Buyer supplies explicit written instructions that are agreed to in writing by Seller or the manufacturer. Buyer shall be solely responsible for all cost and expense of packing, shipment, freight and any insurance coverage. Risk of loss and title of all Equipment shipped shall pass to Buyer once the Equipment leaves Seller’s or the manufacturer’s shipping dock.

6. TAXES: The prices quoted by Seller do not include any sales, use, value added or any other Provincial, Federal or foreign taxes or duties. Any and all present and future taxes, duties, or other government charges, whether levied or assessed upon Buyer or Seller, including but not limited to sales, use, value added or personal property taxes, shall be paid by Buyer and Buyer shall reimburse Seller for any such taxes, duties or charges paid by Seller.

7. NONCONFORMITY: Buyer shall immediately inspect all Equipment shipped hereunder upon receipt of shipment or completion of installation, and in the event of any claims of nonconformity to the specifications set out in the applicable Order, shall provide Seller with immediate written notification, stating full particulars in support thereof. All claims by Buyer having anything to do with any Equipment or Services provided hereunder shall be made in writing within ten (10) days after the shipment, installation or completion of Equipment or Services, as the case may be, and failure of Buyer to give such notice shall constitute a complete defense for Seller against all such claims.

8. WARRANTIES: Warranties for the Equipment or Services sold hereunder are limited to: (A) those (if any) provided in writing for the benefit of Buyer by Seller’s supplier or the original manufacturer, and (B) those (if any) provided by Seller for Buyer’s benefit in a separate written document prepared and signed by Seller.

Buyer’s operator is responsible to inspect the Equipment before each use and ensure that the modification has not impacted the safe operation of the Equipment.

10. SELLER’S SECURITY INTEREST: Buyer hereby grants Seller a security interest in the Equipment purchased hereunder, as security for the full payment of the purchase price of such Equipment. If Seller requests, Buyer will execute any financing statement or other documents as required by Seller and pay all related costs necessary to protect Seller’s security interest.

15. BUYER FACILITY: Seller’s representative may require access to Buyer’s facility. Seller’s access shall not be conditioned upon the signing of any agreement, waiver, or release which in any way attempts to conflict, negate or affect these terms and conditions. If Seller’s representative signs such an agreement, waiver, or release, it shall be considered void and have no force and effect. Seller will ensure all Seller’s representative(s) exercise due care to comply with any facility procedures generally applicable to personnel at the Buyer’s facility. Seller’s representative may exercise the “right-to-refuse” if in the discretion of the Seller’s representative the site and/or facility is unsafe, in accordance with applicable Provincial health and safety laws.
