TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE
- SPECIFICATIONS
Seller shall comply with all specifications stated in this order and (unless the goods called for by this order are standard commercial products not intended as component parts of or as equipment or as accessories for Buyer’s products) with all applicable Government specifications.
- INSPECTION/REJECTION
- Seller shall provide and maintain, without additional charge to Buyer, an inspection system which assures compliance with all specifications stated in this order and in the absence of such specifications, Seller shall be required to provide and maintain without additional charge to Buyer, an inspection system, which is acceptable to Buyer, Buyer’s customer and the Government and which has been approved in writing by Buyer. Seller shall tender to Buyer for acceptance only goods inspected, or services performed, in accordance with the appropriate inspection system and have been found by Seller to be in conformity with all requirements of this order. As part of the system, Seller shall prepare records evidencing all inspections made under the system and the outcome of such inspections. These records shall be complete and made available to Buyer during performance of this order and for as long afterwards as required by this order or applicable laws and/or regulations, but in no event shall such period expire prior to (i) two (2) years after final payment, or (ii) final resolution of any dispute involving the goods delivered hereunder, whichever is later. Buyer may perform reviews and evaluations as reasonably necessary to ascertain compliance with this paragraph. Such reviews and evaluations shall be conducted in a manner that will not unduly delay work under this order. Buyer’s right of review, whether exercised or not, does not release Seller of any of its obligations of testing, inspection, quality control and associated documentation.
- Buyer, Buyer’s customer, and the Government shall have the right to inspect and test the material and workmanship of all goods or services required under this order at all places and times including, when practicable, during the period of manufacture or performance; and if any such inspection or test is made on the premises of Seller, Seller shall furnish, without additional charge to Buyer, all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safe and convenient performance of the inspection or test.
- Notwithstanding (i) prior inspection, (ii) payment for, or (iii) use of the goods or services ordered hereunder, Buyer shall have the right to reject any of such goods or services which do not conform to all requirements of this order. Such right shall be exercisable within the period provided in Buyer’s applicable specification, or elsewhere in this order, or in the absence thereof, within six (6) months following Buyer’s receipt of the goods or services called for hereunder. Buyer may require reperformance of rejected services. If this is a fixed price order, reperformance shall be at Seller’s expense. If this is a cost reimbursement, time and material or labor-hour type order, reperformance shall be at no additional profit to Seller. If timely reperformance of acceptable services cannot be accomplished or is not feasible, Buyer may reduce any profit or fee amounts due for the work not performed, purchase the services from another source and charge any cost increase to Seller, or may terminate this order for default in accordance with FAR 52.249.8. All such rejected goods shall be returned to Seller at Seller’s risk and expense, (transportation collect declared at full value, unless Seller advises otherwise), for full credit or refund (at Buyer’s option) excepting, however, those goods which Buyer elects to repair at Seller’s expense or to retain at an equitable reduction in price. The rejected goods returned to Seller shall not be replaced by Seller except upon written instructions from Buyer. Rejected goods shall not again be tendered for acceptance without disclosure of former rejection. Resubmitted goods must be shipped separately. Should Buyer elect to repair the nonconforming goods, all terms and conditions of this order shall remain in full force and effect as to the goods furnished by Seller. Prior inspection or test, payment for, or use of the goods or services ordered hereunder does not relieve Seller from any responsibility regarding defects or other failures to meet the requirements of this order which may be discovered prior to acceptance. Acceptance shall be conclusive except as regards latent defects, fraud, or such gross mistakes as amount to fraud. Buyer’s rights under this Article shall be in addition to and shall not be deemed to diminish its rights under this Article or under the Article hereof entitled "Warranty".
- In the event that Buyer’s customer and/or the Government charges Buyer for additional costs related to inspection or test when goods are not ready at the time specified by Seller or when prior rejection makes reinspection or retest necessary, Buyer shall have the right to reduce the amount payable under this order; such right to include, without limitation, Buyer’s right to deduct or setoff as specified herein.
WARRANTY
- In addition to any other express or implied warranties Seller warrants to Buyer, its successors, assigns, customers, and users of goods sold by Buyer, that all goods provided hereunder shall be (i) merchantable; (ii) new; (iii) of the grade and quality specified, (iv) free from defects in material and workmanship; (v) with regard to goods designed by Seller, free from defects in design; (vi) suitable for the purposes intended whether expressed or reasonably implied; (vii) in compliance with all applicable specifications, drawings, and performance requirements; and (viii) free from liens or encumbrances on title. Delivery, inspection, test, acceptance or use of or payment for the goods furnished hereunder shall not affect Seller’s obligation under this warranty, and such warranties, and all other warranties, express or implied, shall survive delivery, inspection, test, acceptance, payment, and use. Seller agrees to correct defects in or replace any goods not conforming to the foregoing warranty promptly, without expense to Buyer, when notified of such nonconformity by Buyer, provided Buyer elects to provide Seller with the opportunity to do so. A written notice specifying that such goods are corrections or replacements shall accompany all deliveries of corrected or replaced goods. In the event that Seller is directed to correct defects in or replace nonconforming goods and fails to do so promptly, Buyer, after reasonable notice to Seller, shall have the right to correct or replace such goods and charge Seller for the cost incurred by Buyer in doing so, such right to include, without limitation, Buyer’s right to deduct or set off as specified herein.
- If services or technical data are to be provided by Seller hereunder, Seller warrants to Buyer that such services and/or technical data have been performed or prepared in a professional and workmanlike manner.
INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY
- As to the goods provided hereunder, Seller shall be liable for and shall indemnify and save Buyer and each subsequent purchaser or user thereof, harmless from any infringement claim, suit or action, including proceedings under 28 U.S.C. § 1498, alleging that the manufacture, use or sale of such goods infringes any patent, trademark, copyright, semiconductor chip product mask work right or other proprietary right; except, however, that when such alleged infringement arises as a necessary consequence of Seller’s compliance with specifications or designs furnished by Buyer which describe that aspect of the goods on which such alleged infringement is based, then Buyer shall be liable and shall save Seller harmless therefrom, but this exception shall not apply if the subject matter giving rise to the claim for infringement either (i) was derived from, or selected by Seller, or (ii) relates to materials or compositions, or processes relating to materials or compositions.
- The party against whom such infringement claim is made, or such suit or action is commenced, shall promptly notify the other party in writing. The party required to indemnify under the provisions of paragraph a. hereof shall promptly assume and diligently conduct the entire defense of such alleged infringement at its own expense, provided that such party receives prompt written notice of such claim, suit, or action if such is commenced against the other party. Insofar as its interests are affected, the other party shall have the right, at its own expense and without releasing any obligation, liability, or undertaking of the party required to indemnify, to: (i) cooperate in the defense of such claim, and (ii) with permission of the court, to intervene in any such suit or action.
- Notwithstanding any of the above provisions, Buyer shall have the further right, at its own election, to supersede Seller in the defense of any such alleged infringement and thereafter to assume and conduct the same according to Buyer’s sole discretion, in which event Seller shall be released from any obligation arising from such infringement claim, suit or action under this infringement indemnity clause. Further, Seller, if requested in writing by Buyer, shall cooperate with Buyer in Buyer’s defense of any alleged infringement claim.

- COPYRIGHTS
Seller agrees that, for any works of authorship created by Seller or any employees or subcontractors of Seller in the course of this agreement, those works that come under one of the categories of "Works Made for Hire" in 17 U.S.C. § 101 shall be considered Works Made for Hire. For any works of authorship that do not come under such categories, Seller, warranting that it has right to do so, hereby assigns and agrees to assign all right, title, and interest it has to any copyright in such works and will execute or cause to be executed at Buyer’s expense any documents required to establish Buyer’s ownership of such copyright.

- Subject to paragraph d. hereof, if any change under this clause causes an increase or decrease in the cost of or the time required for performance, an equitable adjustment shall be made in cost/price or delivery schedule or both, and the order shall be modified in writing accordingly. Any claim by Seller for adjustment under this clause, however, must be submitted in writing in the form of a complete change proposal, fully supported by factual information, to Buyer’s Purchasing Department not later than fifteen (15) days after the date of receipt by Seller of the change order, or within such extension of that fifteen-day period as Buyer, in its sole discretion, may grant in writing at Seller’s request, provided, however, that Buyer in its sole discretion may consider any such claim regardless of when asserted, except that no claim for equitable adjustment hereunder shall be allowed if it is asserted after final payment of this order.
- Notwithstanding the pendency of any claim for an adjustment submitted by Seller hereunder, Seller shall diligently proceed with the performance of the order, as directed by Buyer, and nothing herein shall be construed as relieving Seller of its obligations to so perform, including without limitation the failure of the parties to agree upon Seller’s entitlement to, or the amount or nature of, any such adjustment.
- Where the cost of property made obsolete or excess as a result of a change is included in Seller’s claim for adjustment, Buyer shall have the right to prescribe the manner of disposition of such property.

- FORCE MAJEURE/EXCUSABLE DELAYS
- Buyer may delay Sellers’ delivery, Buyer's acceptance or Buyer's payment for the goods when such delays are occasioned by causes beyond Buyer's control. Seller shall hold such goods at the direction of the Buyer and shall deliver them when the cause effecting the delay has been removed. Buyer's sole liability and Seller's sole remedy for any such delay shall be limited to Seller's direct additional costs in holding the goods or delaying performance of a Purchase Order. Causes beyond Buyer's control may include, but are not restricted to, acts of God or of the public enemy, acts of the Government in its sovereign capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes and unusually severe weather.
- Seller shall not be charged with any liability for failure or delay in making deliveries when such failure or delay is due to any cause beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of Seller; provided that Seller shall give to Buyer prompt notice in writing when it appears that such cause will result in failure or delay in making deliveries under this order. In the event of any such failure or delay, Buyer shall have the right at its option and without being under any liability to Seller to cancel by notice in writing to Seller the portion or portions of this order so affected.
- COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
In the performance of this order, Seller shall comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations, and ordinances, including those relating to pollution control, waste disposal, hazardous substances, and protection of the environment; and as required under Article 31 herein Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from and against any and all liability due to the Seller’s failure to so comply. Seller hereby certifies that the goods called for by this order have been or will be produced in compliance with Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S. Code 201-219) and, insofar as applicable to this order, the Walsh-Healey Public Contracts Act (41 U.S. Code 35-45) and the Work Hours Act of 1962 (40 U.S. Code 327-332), and any amendments thereto, as well as with the provisions of any other federal law with respect to labor relations, minimum wages and hours of employment, now in effect or hereafter enacted, and with any and all rules and regulations issued under each and every such act. Seller agrees that this certification may be considered as the certificate contemplated by the amendment dated October 26, 1949, to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938.
- INSPECTION OF RECORDS
Seller agrees that its books, records and its plant, or such parts of its plant as may be engaged in the performance of this order, shall at all reasonable times be subject to inspection and audit by any authorized representative of Buyer and/or of any Department of the United States Government.
- SELLER'S FINANCIAL STATUS
Buyer may terminate this order for default in the event of:
- the appointment, with or without Seller’s consent, of any trustee, liquidator, assignee, custodian, sequestrator or receiver for any substantial portion of Seller’s assets;
- proceedings, voluntary or involuntary, in bankruptcy or insolvency, by or against Seller;
- Seller’s demonstrated inability to pay its debts generally as they come due.
- PRICE REDUCTION FOR DEFECTIVE COST OR PRICING DATA
- In the event Buyer’s customer(s) (including the Government) makes a determination pursuant to the clauses(s) in, or required to be in, Buyer’s contract(s) related to the Truth in Negotiations Act ("Act") or its implementing regulations, that any cost, price or fee in Buyer’s contract(s) should or will be reduced because:
- Seller furnished cost or pricing data that were not complete, accurate and current as certified, or as required to be certified, in the Seller’s Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data; or
- A subcontractor of Seller furnished cost or pricing data that were not complete, accurate and current as certified, or as required to be certified, in the subcontractor’s Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data; or
- A subcontractor or prospective subcontractor of Seller furnished cost or pricing data that were required to be complete, accurate and current and to be submitted to support a subcontract cost estimate furnished by Seller but that were not complete, accurate and current as of the date certified, or as required to be certified, in the Seller’s Certificate of Current Cost of Pricing Data; or
- Seller or a subcontractor or prospective subcontractor of Seller furnished any data not within (i), (ii) or (iii) above (i.e., all data submitted at any and all times whether or not certified), that were not complete, accurate, or current as submitted; or
- Seller or a subcontractor or prospective subcontractor of Seller failed to furnish any cost or pricing data, including any requested data, that were required under the Act or its implementing regulations;
then, at any time following such determination, the sums paid or payable to Seller under this order may, at Buyer’s sole option, be reduced in the amount by which the sums received or receivable by Buyer from its customer(s) (including, but not limited to, the allocable share of Buyer’s indirect costs and profit or fee) are reduced based upon such determination, and this order shall be modified in writing as may be necessary to reflect such reduction. At Buyer’s election, Buyer may, pursuant to Article 8, paragraph d. hereof, setoff against any amounts due or to become due to the Seller from Buyer, whether or not under this order, all amounts by which this order has been reduced as set forth above. For purposes of this paragraph, a "determination" by Buyer’s customer means a final decision of a Government contracting officer and/or the formal assertion of a claim by a non-Governmental customer of Buyer and/or the withholding of money from Buyer by a customer based on an alleged failure of Buyer or its subcontractors to comply with the Act and/or the agreement by Buyer to a reduction in any cost, price, or fee of its contract(s) as the result of an alleged failure to comply with the Act.
- Appeal - If an appealable decision is made by a Contracting Officer of the United States relating to cost or pricing data required to be submitted or actually submitted by Seller or a subcontractor of Seller, such decision (or portions thereof as relate to Seller) shall be conclusive upon Seller, provided that Seller, in the discretion of Buyer, is given the opportunity to appeal such decision in the name of Buyer and fails to do so. Any such appeal brought by Seller in the name of Buyer shall be at the sole expense of Seller. Seller shall be solely responsible for the prosecution of such appeal, including, but not limited to, the presentation of all pleadings, documents, evidence, facts, data and testimony in connection therewith. Further, Seller shall be responsible for providing any and all information requested by Buyer to verify, support, or provide any and all certifications required by the Contract Disputes Act of 1978, 41 U.S.C. § 601 et seq., to perfect any such appeal. If Seller is given the opportunity to so appeal and elects to do so, Seller shall, upon Buyer’s written request, provide to Buyer advance copies of papers to be filed in such appeal and such other information, consultation and opportunity to participate in the appeal as Buyer may reasonably request. As used in this paragraph b. the term "appeal" shall include any and all proceedings taken by Seller under this paragraph before a Board of Contract Appeals and any Federal Court. Seller shall be conclusively bound by any decision of any such Board of Contract Appeal or Federal Court.
- Indemnification - In addition to any other remedies that Buyer may have, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and against any loss or damage, including Buyer’s costs and attorney’s fees, resulting from any and all determinations by Buyer’s customer(s) as set forth in paragraph a. above or from Seller’s failure otherwise to comply with the clauses incorporated by reference in this order.
- CERTIFICATES
Seller shall furnish to Buyer or directly to the Government upon request of Buyer any certificate required to be furnished by any provision of this order (including the FAR clauses incorporated or set out herein) and any certificate required by any future law, ordinance, or regulation with respect to Seller’s compliance with the terms and provisions of the FAR or such laws, ordinances, or regulations. As used in this Article, the word "certificate" shall include any plan or course of action or record keeping function, as, for example, the small business subcontracting plan required by FAR Section 52.219-9.
- CONFIDENTIAL DISCLOSURE
- Information Furnished by Buyer - Technical or business information and ideas disclosed to Seller in connection with this order at any time in any form (including without limitation, orally, visually by examination of the features of parts, equipment, tools, gauges, patterns, or other items furnished or disclosed to Seller by Buyer, or in designs, processes, drawings, specifications, reports, data, tools, gauges or goods provided hereunder) which Buyer considers proprietary and so indicates to Seller at the time of disclosure or within a reasonable time thereafter (hereinafter referred to as "proprietary information"), are entrusted to Seller only for use on behalf of Buyer in the performance of this and subsequent related orders. Seller shall keep proprietary information in confidence and shall neither use (other than in performance under this or subsequent related orders) nor disclose such proprietary information except as authorized in writing by Buyer. On completion of this or all subsequent related orders (as appropriate), Seller shall deliver to Buyer or destroy to Buyer’s satisfaction all material (including without limitation, documents, software, tools, scrap and goods which may be defective, partially completed, or completed) embodying proprietary information, unless otherwise instructed by Buyer. Any such material disposed of by Seller at any time other than by delivery to Buyer shall be altered to such an extent that prevents discovery of any proprietary information embodied therein. However, Seller shall not be liable for use or disclosure of any proprietary information which is shown by clear and convincing proof to either have been known to the Seller at the time of receipt from Buyer or to be in the public domain.
