These terms and conditions of sale establish the rights, obligations, and remedies of PowerJet Parts, Inc. (“PJP”) and Buyer. They apply to any order issued by Buyer for the purchase of PJP goods or services unless PJP and Buyer have signed a valid written purchase agreement that covers the specific goods that are the subject of Buyer’s purchase order. PJP’S ACCEPTANCE OF BUYER’S ORDER IS MADE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONAL ON AGREEMENT BY BUYER TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE. NO ADDITIONAL, DIFFERENT, OR VARIATION IN THE TERMS, NO MATTER HOW MINOR, WHETHER OR NOT CONTAINED IN BUYER’S PURCHASE ORDER, CONTRACT, OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR COMMUNICATION PERTAINING TO BUYER’S ORDER, SHALL BE BINDING ON PJP UNLESS PJP THROUGH AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE EXPLICITLY AGREES TO SUCH TERM IN WRITING.
Unless otherwise stated, quotations are valid for sixty (60) days and are non-binding until PJP accepts Buyer’s written purchase order.
Unless expressly waived in a written quote, a surcharge of $25.USD will be applied to orders below $100.USD. In addition, any product-specific minimum order quantities shall be specified in a written quote.
In the case of customer-specific/configurable goods, PJP reserves the right to charge a cancellation fee equal to the amount of its irrevocable raw material purchase commitments, the value of finished goods, inventory carrying costs, and WIP (whichever applicable) if Buyer cancels or modifies its purchase order (i) before the acknowledged delivery date, (ii) during the quoted lead-time, or (iii) before the Buyer’s original requested ship date, whichever is later. Buyer’s payment of the cancellation fee shall be due within thirty (30) days of the date of the PJP invoice for the cancellation fee. Buyer’s request to delay/extend delivery by an additional ninety (90) days after the original delivery date may be deemed a cancellation/modification of the purchase order.
Buyer will inspect the goods within twenty (20) days of receipt. Goods will be presumed to be accepted unless PJP receives written notice of rejection explaining the basis for rejection.
Buyer warrants that the designs and specifications furnished by it to PJP will not infringe any patent, trademark or copyright with respect to the manufacture or sale of the resulting goods.
PJP performs Services in a professional and workmanlike manner and with qualified personnel. PJP does not assume any obligation to deliver particular results or deliverables when providing Services and disclaims all warranties, if any, for the provision of Services.
Buyer’s warranty claim will be subject to PJP’s Return Material Authorization (RMA) procedures (available on the PJP website). The claim must be in writing and made within the warranty period. Buyer must return non-conforming goods within sixty (60) days of receipt of a RMA Number from PJP. Freight costs to return non-conforming goods will be at PJP’s expense, unless PJP rejects the warranty claim in which case Buyer shall be responsible for such costs.
Except for payment obligations, neither party will be liable to the other for delay in performance or non-performance, in whole or in part, if performance has been made impracticable by compliance in good faith with any applicable foreign or domestic governmental regulation or order, whether or not it later proves to be invalid, or by the occurrence of a contingency the non-occurrence of which was a basic assumption on which this contract was made, including, but not limited to, acts of God, fire, flood, accident, riot, war, sabotage, strike, labor trouble or shortage, or embargo.PJP’s inability to obtain at prices and on terms deemed by it to be practicable any required raw material, energy source, equipment, labor, or transportation, or any increased costs due to capital improvements for environmental protection shall also be sufficient to relieve PJP of its obligation to perform hereunder. If any of such circumstances affect only a part of PJP’s capacity to perform, PJP shall have the right to allocate goods and deliveries among all of its customers and its own requirements in a manner and at such times as PJP may determine. Quantities affected by this paragraph may, at the option of either party, be eliminated from the contract without liability, but the contract shall remain otherwise unaffected.
PJP shall not be liable for any delays or increased costs caused by Buyer, such as delays in providing necessary information, end-use certificates, late payments, or other Buyer deliverables or delays by Buyer-designated suppliers in providing goods or services. In the event of a non-force majeure Buyer-caused delay, the price and other affected terms will be adjusted accordingly to reflect PJP’s increased costs or other adverse impacts associated with the delay. In addition, if delivery of goods or services is delayed due to acts or omissions of Buyer or Buyer-designated suppliers, PJP may store the goods at Buyer’s risk and expense, and may invoice Buyer just as if there had been no delivery delay.
These terms and conditions of sale constitute the entire contract of sale and purchase of the goods between the parties. It is not assignable by Buyer without the written consent of PJP. No modification of this contract shall have any force or effect unless in writing signed by the parties and no modification shall be effected by the acknowledgment or acceptance of purchase orders containing different terms or conditions.

The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, 1980, and any successor thereto, does not apply.
PJPmay, at Buyer’s request, furnish technical assistance, advice and information with respect to the goods supplied under this contract, if and to the extent that such assistance, advice and information is readily available, except for proprietary techniques or procedures. It is expressly agreed that there is no obligation to provide such information, and that the information is subject to the Limitation on Liability Section of this contract. PJP accepts no liability in contract, tort or otherwise for any damages or injury arising directly or indirectly from any error or omission in such technical data or literature.
Tools made for the manufacture of goods to be supplied under the contract and the copyright therein remain PJP property notwithstanding that the Buyer may have been debited with any sum in respect of their cost.
