ACCEPTANCE: The goods being offered herein are
subject to prior sale and are intended for immediate acceptance. By the
issuance of a purchase order, Buyer accepts completely and exclusively the
terms and conditions herein, which constitute the entire contract. The Seller
shall not be bound by any other terms contained within the Buyer’s purchase
order or any other document which attempts to impose conditions at variance
with the terms and conditions of this quotation unless said variance is
specifically agreed to in writing by a duly authorized officer of the Seller.
All quotations and acceptances of orders are made with the mutual understanding
that the orders are not subject to cancellation. The shipping date is
approximate only and may be subject to delays and availability of goods. This
agreement shall be an ILLINOIS contract and shall be interpreted and
administered for all purposes under the laws of the STATE OF ILLINOIS. The
covenants expressed herein shall be severable, and the invalidity, now or in
the future, of any of the covenants recited herein shall not affect the
validity of the remaining covenants.
TERMS: Terms are cash with order and before removal of goods,
unless otherwise agreed to in writing. It is understood that there are no
conditions or agreements outside of this written quotation and that all prior
conversations, agreements, or representations with reference to its subject
matter are superseded. All sales are subject to applicable federal, state, and
local use, sales and excise taxes, which the Buyer agrees to pay and which may
be billed as part of the selling price or separately, if the Seller is required
by any taxing authority to collect and pay such a tax. A 2% monthly service charge
will be added to all balances past due from the date of delivery, plus all
costs of collection, including legal fees, expenses, and court costs.
TITLE: Where less than the entire purchase price (including
taxes) is to be paid prior to delivery, title shall not pass to Buyer with
delivery of the goods, but shall remain vested in Seller until the entire
purchase price (including taxes) is paid. In the event that title is
transferred or deemed to have been transferred by operation of law or otherwise,
Buyer hereby grants and transfers to Seller a security interest in favor of
Seller in and to all machinery and equipment purchased from Seller pursuant
hereto which shall come into Buyer’s control or actual or constructive possession.
This security interest shall secure the timely payment of all sums due to
Seller from Buyer. Buyer agrees to sign and deliver to Seller such financing
statements and such other documents as may be, from time to time, reasonably
required for public filing or any other reason, all in a form satisfactory to
Seller and/or its attorneys as may be requested. Seller may, at its sole
discretion, file any such financing statements or other documents. In the event
that Buyer refuses to execute and deliver such financing statements within one
(1) day of receipt thereof, the Buyer hereby irrevocably appoints any present
or future officer of Seller as its lawful attorney in fact to take possession
of, and to endorse in the name of the undersigned, any financing statement or
similar instrument. Buyer further agrees to pay any and all costs incurred by
Seller (including reasonable attorney’s fees) in connection with the
documentation and perfection of Seller’s security interest.
CLAIMS: In the event of any breach of this sales
agreement by the Seller, it is expressly agreed that the Buyer’s sole and
exclusive remedy shall be limited to a return of the goods, freight prepaid,

descriptions of said goods are approximate only. Seller makes no representation
or warranty that said goods conform to any specification, description, condition,
or performance. The goods may neither include certain standard or optional
features, tooling or accessories, nor may they have the same capacity that may
