TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE AND/OR SERVICE

These terms and conditions of sales and/or service are the terms and conditions upon which A1 Inks.com and its U.S. subsidiaries (together "A1 Inks.com") make all sales. A1 Inks.com will not accept any other terms and conditions of sale and/or service unless Buyer and A1 Inks.com have executed a master contract which specifically supersedes and replaces these terms and conditions. Acceptance of all purchase orders is expressly made conditional upon Buyer's assent, expressed or implied, to the terms and conditions set forth herein without modification or addition.

1. ACCEPTANCE

Buyer's acceptance of these terms and conditions shall be indicated by any of the following, whichever first occurs: (a) Buyer's making of an offer to purchase Product from A1 Inks.com; (b) Buyer's written acknowledgment hereof; (c) Buyer's acceptance of any shipment of any part of the items specified for delivery (the "Products"); or (d) any other act or expression of acceptance by Buyer. A1 Inks.com's acceptance is expressly limited to the terms and conditions hereof in their entirety without addition, modification or exception, and any term, condition or proposals hereafter submitted by Buyer (whether oral or in writing) which is inconsistent with or in addition to the terms and conditions set forth hereon is objected to and is hereby rejected by A1 Inks.com. A1 Inks.com's silence or failure to respond to any such subsequent or different term, condition or proposal shall not be deemed to be A1 Inks.com's acceptance or approval thereof.

2. DELIVERY

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, delivery shall be made in accordance with A1 Inks.com's shipping policy in effect on the date of shipment. For all domestic transactions, unless otherwise stated on the front of the invoice, title to, and all risk of loss or damage with respect to the Products shall pass to Buyer upon delivery by A1 Inks.com to the carrier or Buyer's representative at A1 Inks.com's warehouse or plant. For all international transactions, the Product shall be sold on a delivered, insurance-paid, duty- and international freight unpaid basis. A1 Inks.com assumes no responsibility for charges attendant to customs clearance in the country of delivery, customs duty, VAT or any other charges or taxes within the country designated for delivery by the Buyer. Title and risk of loss shall pass to the Buyer upon delivery to the port designated by the Buyer and prior to Customs clearance. Delivery is subject to the payment provisions set forth herein and to A1 Inks.com's receipt from Buyer of all necessary information and documentation from Buyer including all import certificates, exemption and/or resale certificates, licenses and other documents as may be required from Buyer for export of the Product. Buyer shall promptly notify A1 Inks.com, in no event later than five (5) business days after delivery, of any claimed shortages or rejection as to any delivery. Such notice shall be in writing and shall be reasonably detailed, stating the grounds for any such rejection. Failure to give any such notice within such time shall be deemed an acceptance in full of any such delivery. If Buyer refuses the shipment of goods from A1 Inks.com or returns the goods to A1 Inks.com without A1 Inks.com’ s prior authorization, Buyer agrees to relinquish all right and title to and waives all claims against A1 Inks.com for credit related to such Products. A1 Inks.com shall not be liable for any shipment delays beyond the reasonable control of A1 Inks.com which affect A1 Inks.com or any of A1 Inks.com's suppliers, including, but not limited to, delays caused by unavailability or shortages of Products from A1 Inks.com's suppliers; natural disasters, acts of war; acts or omissions of Buyer; fire, strike, riot, or governmental interference; unavailability or shortage of materials, labor, fuel or power through normal commercial channels at customary and reasonable rates; failure or destruction of plant or equipment arising from any cause whatsoever; or transport failures.

3. PRICE AND PAYMENT

Buyer shall bear all applicable federal, state, municipal and other government taxes (such as sales, use and similar taxes) as well as import or custom duties; license fees and similar charges, however designated or levied on the sale of the Products (or the delivery thereof) or measured by the purchase price paid for the Products. (A1 Inks.com's prices set forth on the front side of the invoice do not include such taxes, fees, and charges.) Exemption certificates must be presented prior to shipment if they are to be honored. Terms of payment are within A1 Inks.com's sole discretion, and, unless otherwise agreed to by A1 Inks.com, payment must be received by A1 Inks.com prior to A1 Inks.com's acceptance of an order. Payment for the products shall be made by credit card, wire transfer, or some other prearranged payment method unless credit terms have been agreed to by A1 Inks.com. A1 Inks.com may invoice parts of an order separately. Orders are not binding upon A1 Inks.com until accepted by A1 Inks.com. If order is cancelled a Buyer agrees to pay a cancellation fee that may apply, shipping and handling charges are not refundable. All unpaid invoices shall bear interest at an amount equal to 1-1/2% of the outstanding balance per month (or the maximum rate of interest allowed to be contracted for by law, whichever is less), commencing upon the date payment is due. Buyer's failure to make timely payment may result in such action as commencement of proceedings for collection, revocation of credit, stoppage of shipment, delay or cessation of future deliveries, repossession of unpaid delivered goods and termination of any one or more sales agreements. If a check is returned due to insufficient funds or other reasons or in the event of credit card charge dispute or reversal the Buyer agrees to pay a thirty five dollar handling fee per occurrence. Notwithstanding any "net" payment provisions specified on the invoice, A1 Inks.com shall have no continuing obligation to deliver Products on credit, and any credit approval may be withdrawn by A1 Inks.com at any time and without prior notice. A1 Inks.com retains (and Buyer grants to A1 Inks.com by submitting a purchase order) a security interest in the Products to secure payment in full and compliance with all sales agreements, and Buyer agrees to execute any additional documents necessary to perfect such security interest. In the event Buyer defaults and does not pay outstanding balance(s) within thirty days from a date of a A1 Inks.com notice that informs Buyer that the money are due, Buyer agrees to pay a default fee of seven hundred and fifty dollars to A1 Inks.com. In the event A1 Inks.com files a claim againts the Buyer in a court of law for the purpose of collecting unpaid balances or places account with a collection agency, the Buyer agrees to pay seven hundred and fifty dollars to cover A1 Inks.com's costs and any and all costs associated with such action if the costs exceed seven hundred and fifty dollars, including without limitation, attorney's fees, collection agency fees and costs incurred prior to, during, or subsequent to trial, and including, without limitation, collection, bankruptcy, or other creditor's rights proceedings. In the event the sales invoice shall be placed by A1 Inks.com in the hands of an attorney or a collection agency for the purpose of collection, with or without litigation, or for the collecting unpaid balances, the Buyer agrees to pay any and all costs associated with such placement, including without limitation, attorney's fees, collection agency fees and costs incurred prior to, during, or subsequent to trial, and including, without limitation, collection, bankruptcy, or other creditor's rights proceedings. If a sale is to occur, or the Product is to be shipped outside of the United States, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the amount due A1 Inks.com is contracted in U.S. dollars and that payment in U.S. dollars is of the essence. Any payment by Buyer in local currency or the receipt by A1 Inks.com of local currency as a consequence of enforcement procedures against Buyer will be deemed an authorization for A1 Inks.com to use that local currency to purchase U.S. dollars or, if such purchase is prohibited by local law, an authorization to purchase appropriate bonds or other instruments and export them from the Buyer's country in order to convert the currency into U.S. dollar and apply the proceeds to the payment of any amounts owed to A1 Inks.com by the Buyer. Any deficiency as a result of conversion of payment into U.S. dollars shall be the responsibility of the Buyer.
