Product Sales Agreement
PRODUCT SALES AGREEMENT
The terms and conditions of this Product Sales Agreement (“Agreement”) sets forth the terms under which Buyer
may acquire and use PMC products identified in the executed PMC sales quote or order form (each an “Order”)
referencing this Agreement. All purchase orders issued to PMC by Buyer shall be governed only by the terms and
conditions of this Agreement notwithstanding any preprinted terms and conditions on Buyer’s purchase order. Any
additional or different terms in Buyer’s documents are hereby deemed to be material alterations and notice of
objection to and rejection of them is hereby given.
1. CONFLICTING TERMS
Any additional, conflicting or different terms, including but not limited to the terms affixed to Buyer’s
purchase order or other procurement document issued by the Buyer, are hereby rejected and objected to by PMC.
The terms of this Agreement expressly supersede and take precedence over any such additional, conflicting or
different terms.
2. TERMS OF PAYMENT AND CREDIT
Terms are net cash payable in U.S. dollars with order except where satisfactory open credit is established in
advance in which case the terms are net thirty (30) days from the date of invoice. Accounts over thirty (30) days are
subject to a charge of two percent (2%) per month or the maximum rate of interest allowed by law, whichever is less.
If the deliveries are made in installments, each installment shall be separately invoiced and payment due and payable
therefore shall be made accordingly. If, in the judgment of PMC, the financial condition of the Buyer at any time
does not justify continuation of production or shipment on the terms of payment originally specified, PMC may
require full or partial payment in advance and, in the event of the preceding conditions or of bankruptcy or
insolvency of the Buyer or in the event any proceeding is brought by or against the Buyer under the bankruptcy or
insolvency laws, PMC is entitled to cancel any quantity of product then outstanding, even if acknowledged or in
transit to Buyer, and to receive full payment of its cancellation charges. In the event PMC exercises any right it may
have to stop acknowledged product orders or product in transit because of Buyer’s financial condition, PMC may at
its option resell such articles at public sale without notice to Buyer or at private sale after giving such notice and
without affecting PMC'S right to hold Buyer liable for any loss or damage caused by Buyer’s breach.
3. PRICES AND TAXES
Prices are in U.S. dollars and are exclusive of all federal, state, provincial, municipal or other government,
excise, use, sales, occupational or like taxes, tariffs, duties, surcharges, now in force or enacted in the future. The
Buyer must provide PMC with any applicable tax exemption certificate acceptable to the taxing authorities. If PMC
is required to pay additional taxes, fees, or other charges, Buyer shall be responsible for and shall reimburse PMC for
said amount. PMC is not liable for reporting, collecting and paying any tax, fee, or other charges imposed upon the
Buyer subsequent to the original invoice.
4. PRICE ADJUSTMENTS
The prices and delivery schedule for products covered hereby will be those acknowledged by PMC. If such
prices are based on the purchase of a particular quantity of the products to be delivered over the specified period of
time, then PMC reserves the right to impose additional requirements on such purchase. These additional
requirements may involve clauses which are different than PMC's standard terms and conditions. In such cases, the
terms contained therein shall govern and Buyer accepts these conditions by a written acknowledgement, by
implication, or by acceptance and payment for the goods which are the subject hereof.
5. RESPONSIBILITY, TITLE AND SECURITY INTEREST
(A) All sales are Incoterms EX WORKS PMC'S point of shipment. The time of delivery is the time the
product to be delivered is ready to be picked up by the carrier.
(B) PMC'S title passes to Buyer and PMC'S liability as to delivery ceases upon making delivery of articles
purchased hereunder to the carrier at the shipping point in good condition and the Buyer will be responsible for and
bears the entire risk of loss or damage to the products. The carrier of such product acts as Buyer’s agent. Buyer is
responsible for filing any necessary claims for loss or damages against the carrier. Buyer is responsible for clearing
the goods for export. PMC will provide reasonable assistance at Buyer’s expense.
(C) PMC hereby reserves a purchase money security interest in the products sold and the proceeds thereof, in
the amount of the purchase price. In the event of default by Buyer of any of its obligations to PMC, PMC has the
right to repossess the products sold hereunder without liability to Buyer. These security interests will be satisfied by
payment in full. A copy of the invoice may be filled with appropriate authorities at any time as a financing statement
and/or chattel mortgage, in order to perfect PMC'S security interests. On the request of PMC, Buyer will execute
financial statements and other instruments PMC requires to perfect its security interests.
6. DELIVERY DATES AND SHIPPING
(A) Shipping dates are approximate only. Buyer acknowledges that such dates may change due to
unpredictable market trends or other events beyond PMC’s control. PMC may ship up to two (2) weeks in advance
of the acknowledged shipping date and may split shipments. PMC may, from time to time in its sole discretion: (i)
discontinue or limit production of any product; (ii) allocate, terminate or limit deliveries of any product in times of
shortage; and (iii) modify the design of, specifications for or construction of any product, provided the modification
does not materially affect overall product performance.
(B) In the absence of specific shipping instructions, PMC will ship by the method it deems most
advantageous. Transportation charges will be collect, or if prepaid, will be subsequently invoiced to Buyer. Unless
otherwise indicated, Buyer is obligated to obtain insurance against damage to the products being shipped. Unless
otherwise specified, products will be shipped in standard packaging. When special or export packaging is requested,
or in the opinion of PMC, required under the circumstances, the cost of same, if not set forth on the invoice, will be
invoiced separately.
(C) PMC is not liable for any loss, damages, or penalty resulting from delay in delivery when such delay is
due to causes beyond the reasonable control of PMC, including but not limited to supplier delay, force majeure, act
of God, labor unrest, fire, explosion or earthquake. In any such event the delivery date will be deemed extended for a
period equal to the delay.
(D) In the event of product shortages or an inability to meet Buyer requested requirements for any reason
whatsoever, PMC may allocate production among its customers in its sole and absolute discretion.
