Notwithstanding any contrary provision in Buyer’s purchase order or other acceptance document, delivery of Products or commencement of production by Seller shall not constitute acceptance of Buyer’s terms and conditions to the extent any such terms or conditions are inconsistent with or in addition to the terms contained in Seller’s Quotation. Upon acceptance by Buyer, Seller’s Quotation will become a binding contract between Buyer and Seller (collectively, the “Contract”).

If Seller does not receive such authorization within such thirty (30) day period, Seller shall have the right to change the price for the Products to Seller’s price in effect for the Products at the time the order is released to final manufacture or performance. Prices do not include transportation charges.

In the event that Seller is unable due to any such occurrence or otherwise, to fulfill its total commitments to all customers, Buyer agrees to accept, as full and complete performance by Seller, deliveries in accordance with such plan or proration as Seller may adopt.

2.1 DESCRIPTIONS

All specifications, drawings, illustrations, descriptions and particulars of weights, dimensions or capacity and other details concerning Products or their components, including, without limitation, statements regarding compliance with law or regulation (collectively, “Descriptions”) wherever such Descriptions appear (including, without limitation, in the Quotation, in Seller’s catalogs, on Seller’s web sites, and/or on any invoices or packaging materials) are intended to give a general idea of the Products and components, but are not part of the Contract and are not to be deemed representations or warranties by Seller. If the Descriptions of any Products or their components differ from the manufacturers’ description, the latter shall be deemed to be correct. Seller relies on such information, if any, as may have been provided to it by the manufacturers of the Products and components and accepts no liability in contract or tort, or under statute, regulation or otherwise for any error in or omission from such Descriptions whether caused by Seller’s negligence or otherwise. Where a Product is described as RoHS compliant, this means that, based on information provided by Seller’s suppliers, the Product does not contain the substances prohibited by the European Community Directive (2002/95/EC) on the Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances, commonly known as the RoHS Directive, at levels in excess of the anticipated maximum concentration values. Certification of Product or component compliance with RoHS and its exemptions is best vested in the expertise of the Product and component manufacturers rather than those elements of the supply chain not having transformative responsibilities. As such, any information provided by Seller in reference to RoHS compliance is based on the Product or component manufacturers’ timely and accurate information and not a declaration of compliance made by Seller.

2.2 EXPORT AND IMPORT RESTRICTIONS

Prices are communicated EXW (Ex-Works). Where shipping is provided by Seller, prices with shipping costs are communicated DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid). Buyer is responsible for payment of import/export fees, duties and related costs. Buyer is solely responsible for required compliance with the export and import laws of any jurisdiction or country that may be applicable. Seller has no obligation to furnish or obtain any export or import license or similar authorization and is not in any way responsible for the issuance or continuance in force of any such license or authorization. Buyer shall not export, reexport, or transfer, directly or indirectly, any Products to any country or user to which such export, re-export, or transfer is restricted by applicable laws or regulations without first obtaining any required governmental license, authorization, certification or approval. If Buyer resells or otherwise disposes of any Products, Buyer shall comply with any export restrictions applicable to such transfer. Seller shall have no liability for delayed delivery or nondelivery resulting from denial, revocation, suspension or governmental delay in issuance of any necessary export license or authorization.

2.3 JURISDICTION AND VENUE

The Contract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of France. For any litigation that may arise as a result of the performance or non-performance of these conditions, the consequences of the afore mentionned litigation shall be the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tribunal de Commerce de Grenoble.

2.4 ENTIRE AGREEMENT

The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter, and supersedes all prior oral or written representations or agreements by the parties with respect to the subject matter of the Contract, including Buyer’s request for quotation unless specifically incorporated in the Contract. No subsequent terms, conditions, understandings or agreements purporting to modify the terms of the Contract, including any subsequent terms of purchase of Buyer or claims based on usages of trade, will be binding unless in writing and signed by both parties. The failure of either party to enforce any right or remedy provided in the Contract or by law on a particular occasion will not be deemed a waiver of that right or remedy on a subsequent occasion or a waiver of any other right or remedy. A finding that any provision of the Contract is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of the Contract or the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.
