GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.              Applicability.

(a)            These terms and conditions of sale (these “Terms”) are the only terms that govern the sale of the goods (“Goods”) by Restoration Partners, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Seller”) to the buyer named on the Order Confirmation (as defined below) (“Buyer”). Collectively Buyer and Seller are referred to as the “Parties” and individually as “Party.”

(b)            The accompanying purchase order (the “Order Confirmation”) and these Terms (collectively, this “Agreement”) comprise the entire agreement between the parties, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both written and oral. This Agreement supersedes any of Buyer’s general terms and conditions of purchase regardless of whether or when Buyer has submitted its Order Confirmation or such terms. Seller expressly rejects Buyer’s general terms and conditions of purchase, and fulfillment of Buyer’s order does not constitute acceptance of any of Buyer’s terms and conditions or serve to modify or amend these Terms. Acceptance of the Order Confirmation by Buyer (which shall be deemed accepted should Buyer not object in writing within eight (8) business days of receipt of the Order Confirmation) is a prerequisite to the purchase of the Goods and shall operate as an acceptance of these Terms which are expressly incorporated into the Order Confirmation.

2.              Delivery. 

(a)            The Goods will be delivered within a reasonable time after the receipt of Buyer’s Order Confirmation, subject to availability of the Goods. Delivery dates given by Seller are estimates only and are subject to shipping variations and requirements. Seller shall not be liable for any delays, loss, or damage in transit.

(b)            The Goods will be suitably packaged for shipment in Seller’s standard containers, marked for shipment to Buyer at the address specified in the Buyer’s Order Confirmation, and delivered to the Buyer or the forwarding agent selected by Buyer. If Buyer fails to designate a forwarding agent, Seller will make such designation in accordance with its standard shipping practices. Buyer will be responsible for and pay all freight, shipment, and insurance charges associated with shipment of the Products to Buyer, even if the order is rejected upon delivery. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ship the Goods to Buyer on or before the requested receipt date designated in the Buyer’s Order Confirmation. The Parties agree, however, that shipment of any Goods ordered from Seller under this Agreement may be delayed for a period of time sufficient to allow Seller to manufacture and assemble or otherwise acquire the Goods for Buyer, and the Parties further agree that Seller shall not be held liable to Buyer or any other party for any delay in shipment of any Order Confirmation. Any expense for any special packaging or any special delivery requested by Buyer shall be borne solely by Buyer.

(c)            Seller may, in its sole discretion, without liability or penalty, make partial shipments of Goods to Buyer. Each shipment will constitute a separate sale, and Buyer shall pay for the units shipped whether such shipment is in whole or partial fulfillment of Buyer’s Order Confirmation.

3.              Title and Risk of Loss. Shipment of Goods under this Agreement shall be F.O.B. Seller’s warehouse or any such other related facility. Title and risk of loss will pass F.O.B. Seller’s shipping point; provided, however, Seller retains the right and title to the Goods until Seller is paid in full for the Goods.

4.              Amendment and Modification. Except for Section 2(b), these Terms may only be amended or modified in a writing which specifically states that it amends these Terms and is signed by an authorized representative of each Party.

5.              Inspection.

(a)            Buyer shall inspect the Goods within eight (8) days of receipt (“Inspection Period”). Buyer will be deemed to have accepted the Goods unless it notifies Seller in writing of any Nonconforming Goods (as defined below) during the Inspection Period and furnishes such written evidence or other documentation as reasonably required by Seller. “Nonconforming Goods” means only the following: (i) product shipped is different than identified in the Order Confirmation; or (ii) product’s label or packaging incorrectly identifies its contents.

(b)            If Buyer timely notifies Seller of any Nonconforming Goods, Seller shall, in its sole discretion, (i) replace such Nonconforming Goods with conforming Goods, or (ii) credit or refund the Price for such Nonconforming Goods, together with any reasonable third-party shipping and handling expenses actually incurred and paid by Buyer in connection therewith. Buyer shall ship, at its expense and risk of loss, the Nonconforming Goods to Seller’s warehouse or any such other related facility designated by Seller. If Seller exercises its option to replace Nonconforming Goods, Seller shall, after receiving Buyer’s shipment of Nonconforming Goods, ship to Buyer, at Buyer’s expense and risk of loss, the replaced Goods.

(c)            Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the remedies set forth in Section 5(b) are Buyer’s exclusive remedies for Nonconforming Goods. Except as provided under Section 5(b), all sales of Goods to Buyer are made on a one-way basis and Buyer has no right to return Goods purchased under this Agreement to Seller.

6.              Price.

(a)            Buyer shall purchase the Goods from Seller at the prices (the “Prices”) set forth in Seller’s published price list in force as of the date of the Order Confirmation.

(b)            All Prices are exclusive of all sales, use, and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties, and charges of any kind imposed by any governmental authority on any amounts payable by Buyer. Buyer shall be responsible for all such charges, costs, and taxes; provided, that, Buyer shall not be responsible for any taxes imposed on, or with respect to, Seller’s income, revenues, gross receipts, personnel, or real or personal property or other assets. The Prices include standard packaging, transportation and insurance costs.

7.              Payment Terms. 

(a)            Buyer shall pay Seller all invoiced amounts due within twenty-one (21) days after the date of Seller’s invoice. All payments hereunder shall be in U.S. dollars and made by electronic or wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by Seller; provided, however, that payments not exceeding One Thousand Dollars (US $1,000.00) may, at Buyer’s option and subject to Seller’s acceptance, be made by credit card. Seller reserves the right to require pre-payment in its sole discretion.

(b)            Buyer shall pay interest on all late payments at the lesser of the rate of 10% per month or the highest rate permissible under applicable law. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all costs incurred in collecting any late payments, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees. In addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at law (which Seller does not waive by the exercise of any rights hereunder), Seller shall be entitled to suspend the delivery of any Goods if Buyer fails to pay any amounts when due hereunder and such failure continues for fifteen (15) days following written notice thereof. Buyer shall not withhold payment of any amounts due and payable by reason of any set-off of any claim or dispute with Seller, whether relating to Seller’s breach, bankruptcy, or otherwise.

8.              WARRANTIES DISCLAIMER. SELLER MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY WHATSOEVER WITH RESPECT TO THE GOODS, INCLUDING ANY (a) WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY; (b) WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; OR (c) WARRANTY AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF A THIRD PARTY; WHETHER ARISING BY LAW, COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE OF TRADE, OR OTHERWISE. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS NOT RELIED UPON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY MADE BY SELLER, OR ANY OTHER INDIVIDUAL OR ENTITY ON SELLER’S BEHALF.

9.              Limitation of Liability. 

(a)            IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER OR ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF (A) WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE, (B) WHETHER SELLER WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND (C) THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.

(b)            SELLER’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL OF THE AMOUNTS PAID TO SELLER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT.

10.           Compliance with Law. Buyer shall at all times comply with all laws applicable to the operation of its business, this Agreement, Buyer’s performance of its obligations hereunder, and Buyer’s use of the Goods. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall (a) at its own expense, maintain all certifications, credentials, licenses, and permits necessary to conduct its business relating to the purchase or use of the Goods and (b) not engage in any activity or transaction involving the Goods, by way of shipment, use, or otherwise, that violates any law.

11.           Termination. In addition to any remedies that may be provided under these Terms, Seller may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect upon written notice to Buyer, if Buyer: (i) fails to pay any amount when due under this Agreement and such failure continues for sixty (60) days after Buyer’s receipt of written notice of nonpayment; (ii) has not otherwise performed or complied with any of these Terms, in whole or in part; or (iii) becomes insolvent, files a petition for bankruptcy or commences or has commenced against it proceedings relating to bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization or assignment for the benefit of creditors.

12.           Waiver. No waiver by Seller of any of the provisions of this Agreement is effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by Seller. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement by Seller operates or may be construed, as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder by Seller precludes any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege by Seller.

13.           Confidential Information. All non-public, confidential, or proprietary information of Seller, including but not limited to specifications, samples, patterns, designs, plans, drawings, documents, data, business operations, customer lists, pricing, discounts, or rebates, disclosed by Seller to Buyer, whether disclosed orally or disclosed or accessed in written, electronic, or other form or media, and whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as “confidential” in connection with this Agreement is confidential, solely for the use of performing this Agreement and may not be disclosed or copied unless authorized in advance by Seller in writing. Upon Seller’s request, Buyer shall promptly return all documents and other materials received from Seller. Seller shall be entitled to injunctive relief for any violation of this Section. This Section does not apply to information that is: (a) in the public domain; (b) known to Buyer at the time of disclosure; or (c) rightfully obtained by Buyer on a non-confidential basis from a third party.

14.           Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable or responsible to the other Party, nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement (except for any obligations to make payments to the other party hereunder), when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts beyond the impacted Party’s (“Impacted Party”) reasonable control, including, the following force majeure events (“Force Majeure Events”): (a) acts of God; (b) flood, fire, earthquake, pandemic or explosion; (c) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest; (d) order or action by any governmental authority or requirements of law; (e) embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement; (f) national or regional emergency; (g) strikes, labor stoppages or slowdowns, or other industrial disturbances; (h) telecommunication breakdowns, power outages or shortages, lack of warehouse or storage space, inadequate transportation services, or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials; and (i) other events beyond the reasonable control of the Impacted Party.

15.           Assignment. Buyer’s rights, interests, or obligations hereunder may not be assigned, transferred, or delegated by Buyer without the prior written consent of Seller. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves Buyer of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

16.           Relationship of the Parties. The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture, or other form of joint enterprise, employment, or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.

17.           No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement benefits solely the Parties to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, confers on any other person any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

18.           Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement is governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, United States of America, without giving effect to any conflict of laws provisions thereof that would result in the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction. All legal proceedings shall be instituted in the state or federal courts of the State of Florida. Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.

19.           Notices. All notices shall be in writing and addressed to the parties at the addresses set forth on the face of the Order Confirmation or to such other address for either party as that party may designate by written notice.

20.           Severability.
