BINDING TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

The following are the terms and conditions of agreement ("Terms and Conditions") for the sale of products ("Products") by Braemac CA, LLC. ("Braemac") to Braemac's customers ("Customers").

Agreements under these Terms and Condition of sale form the sole agreement with respect to the sale of products, and supersedes all proposals, negotiations, conversations, discussions, agreements and/or representations, whether oral or written, including any industry custom or past dealing between the parties relating to the sale of products.

• ACCEPTANCE AND CANCELLATION OF ORDERS
  Website availability and pricing is an invitation to Customer to tender an offer. Responses to quotes, and other inquiries for pricing and availability are not construed as an offer by Braemac. Acceptance will be in writing, by either an Order Confirmation e-mail or Electronic Data Interchange (‘EDI”) acknowledgement. Acceptance can also be though execution of Customer's order by Braemac. When a Customer orders a product from the Braemac’s website, the preliminary written reply to the order issued on the Braemac’s website does not mean that the order has been accepted. The written reply is only used to let the Customer know that the order has been entered into the Braemac’s computer system. Orders accepted by Braemac may be cancelled by Customer upon written consent of Braemac provided such order is not "NC/NR" or "Non-Cancelable/Non-Returnable", "Non-Standard Products", or governed by a Purchase Agreement Letter. Non-standard products are product Braemac has to order from a supplier specifically for the Customer. This also includes, products not normally in stock, or orders where value-added services have been incorporated into products. Non-standard products are non-cancelable and non-refundable. Braemac may identify Products as non-standard or "NC/NR" by various means including quotes, Products lists, attachments or exhibits. Customer may not change, cancel or reschedule Orders for Products without Braemac's consent. If after acceptance by Braemac of the Customer’s order, the Customer cancels the order, Braemac may request the Customer pay Braemac reasonable cancellation or reliance charges. These charges are paid to Braemac by the Customer. Customer requests to reschedule are subject to acceptance by Braemac in its sole discretion. Orders shall not be canceled or rescheduled after the order has been submitted by Braemac to the shipment carrier. BRAEMAC RESERVES THE RIGHT TO LIMIT OR CANCEL ANY ORDER, AND HAS SOLE DISCRETION, TO ALLOCATE SALES, LIMIT QUANTITIES OF SELECTED PRODUCTS, AND LIMIT SELECTED PRODUCTS TO ITS CUSTOMERS. BRAEMAC RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REJECT ANY ORDER, OR ANY PART OF AN ORDER. PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS AND AVAILABILITY ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE.
  • Returns
    Returns are normally accepted when completed within 30 days of the ship date for the convenience of the Customer. If Braemac agrees to accept a return, return freight charges must be prepaid by Customer. Braemac will not accept COD shipments. Some products may require return directly to the manufacturer. All return items must be in the original packaging, unused, untested, un-programmed, and in resalable condition. Contact a Customer Service Representative for a Return Materials Authorization Number and addressing instructions prior to returning product. Any ESD, programmable semiconductors, or moisture sensitive product returned that has been opened will not be eligible for credit. These statements concerning Returns, do not apply to NON-CANCELABLE/NON-RETURNABLE PRODUCTS. (See the NON-CANCELABLE/NON-RETURNABLE PRODUCTS section in these terms.)
  • Counterfeit Product Prevention Clause
    Only products originally shipped from Braemac or from a supplier at Braemac's direction (drop-ship) will be returned to Braemac. All others will be promptly quarantined and disposed of or returned to the Customer. By a Customer returning products to Braemac, the Customer certifies that the products were purchased from Braemac and there has been no substitution in whole or part of same product from another supplier, distributor or other such source of the product. The return should be in the original packaging (manufacturer or Braemac), in unused and untested condition (except defective). ESD, programmable semiconductors, or moisture sensitive products should not be opened.
• PRICES
  Braemac makes every effort to provide current and accurate information relating to prices, but does not guarantee the currency or accuracy of any such information. Prices are subject to change at any time prior to Braemac's completion of your order. In the event Braemac discovers an error in pricing, we will notify Customer of the corrected version, and Customer may choose to accept the corrected version, or cancel the order. Braemac is not responsible for pricing, typographical, or other errors in any communication with the Customer, and reserves the right to cancel any orders arising from such errors. Orders are billed at the prices and currency in effect at the time of shipment. Prices will be as specified by Braemac and will be applicable for the period specified in Braemac's quote. Unless otherwise stated on the quote, quotes are invitations to tender and are subject to change at any time without notice. If no period is specified, quoted prices will be applicable for thirty (30) days. The website reflects the latest pricing information. Prices shown on the website are subject to change without notice. Prices are subject to increase in the event of an increase in Braemac's costs or other circumstances beyond Braemac's reasonable control, including but not limited to, manufacturers’ price increases, change in exchange rate, or quoting errors. If Customer does not purchase the quantity upon which quantity prices are based, Customer will pay the non-discounted price for the quantity actually purchased and/or a cancellation or restocking fee.

• 1 TERMS OF PAYMENT
  For All Orders
  Customer agrees to pay the entire amount of each invoice from Braemac in accordance with the terms of each invoice, without offset or deduction. Orders are subject to credit approval by Braemac, which may in its sole discretion at any time change the terms of Customer's credit, require payment in cash, bank wire transfer/EFT or by official bank check, and/or require payment of any or all amounts due or to become due for Customer's order before shipment of any or all of the Products. If Braemac reasonably believes that the Customer's ability to make payments may be impaired, or if Customer fails to pay any invoice when due, Braemac may suspend delivery of any order, or any remaining balance, until such payment is made, or cancel any order, or any remaining balance. Customer will remain liable to pay for any Products already shipped, and all Non-Standard Products ordered by Customer. Customer agrees to submit such financial information as Braemac may reasonably require for determination of credit terms and/or continuation of credit terms. Checks are accepted subject to collection, and the date of collection will be deemed the date of payment. Any check received from Customer may be applied by Braemac against any obligation owed by Customer to Braemac under this or any other contract, regardless of any statement appearing on or referring to such check, without discharging Customer's liability for any additional amounts owed by Customer to Braemac. The acceptance by Braemac of such check will not constitute a waiver of Braemac's right to pursue the collection of any remaining balance. Invoices not paid, when due, will bear interest to date of payment at the annual rate of eighteen (18%) percent or such lower rate as may be the maximum permitted by law. If Customer fails to make payment when due, Braemac may pursue any legal or equitable remedies, in which event Braemac will be entitled to reimbursement of costs for collection and reasonable attorneys' fees. There is a $25 (USD) service charge on all returned checks.
• SALES TAX
  US Shipments
  When required by law Braemac will collect Federal, State and/or Local sale, use, excise, and other taxes that apply to a Customer's shipment.

Customer will remit the correct tax unless Customer is tax exempt and Braemac has a valid signed tax exemption certificate on file.
  INTERNATIONAL Shipments
  All applicable VAT, PST, HST, and/or GST charges along with brokerage fees will be the responsibility of the Customer and due at the time of delivery.
• DELIVERY AND TITLE

Subject to Braemac's right of stoppage in transit, delivery of the Products to the carrier will constitute delivery to Customer and title and risk of loss will pass to Customer. Braemac will make reasonable efforts to initiate shipment and schedule delivery as close as possible to Customer's requested delivery date(s). Customer acknowledges that delivery dates provided by Braemac are estimates only, and that Braemac will not be liable for failure to deliver on such dates. Selection of the carrier and delivery route will be made by Braemac unless specifically designated by Customer. Braemac reserves the right to make deliveries in installments. Delay in delivery of one installment will not entitle Customer to cancel any other installment(s). Delivery of any installment of Products within thirty (30) days after the date requested will constitute a timely delivery. Delivery of a quantity that varies from the quantity specified shall not relieve Customer of the obligation to accept delivery and pay for the Products delivered.
  International shipments follow the Incoterms published by the International Chamber of Commerce. An Incoterm for a Customer order is selected by Braemac based on Customer address, destination, and/or currency. Title transfer will be in accordance with the Incoterm selected for the shipment by Braemac. By default, if incoterm is not specified, the incoterm will be FCA point of shipment from Braemac's facility.
