Acceptance of this Order is subject to all the terms set forth herein and on the face of Supplier’s Written Acceptance, under which shall constitute the sole terms and conditions of any Order. Buyer’s assent to all such terms
and conditions shall be conclusively presumed (A) when Buyer receives this document or/and the Supplier’s Confirmed Written Acceptance, electronically or otherwise, and makes no written objection within three (3) days of such receipt; or (B) when Buyer accepts all or any part of the Product(s) reflected by the Order and confirmed by the Supplier’s Confirmed Written Acceptance. Unless otherwise agreed to in advance in writing by Supplier, Supplier hereby expressly objects to any terms or conditions that differ from or are additional to those stated herein or on the Supplier’s Confirmed Written Acceptance.

hereunder at Supplier’s sole discretion. If within the period stated in such demand, Buyer fails or refuses to agree to such different terms of payment or fails or refuses to give adequate assurance of due payment, Supplier may, at its option, treat such failure or refusal as a repudiation of the portion of Order which has not been fully performed or may resume production and may make shipment under reservation of possession or of a security interest and may demand payment against tender of documents of title.
The prices and charges stated on the face of Supplier’s Confirmed Written Acceptance do not include state or federal excise, sales or use, or other taxes (if any) now in effect or hereafter levied by reason of this transaction. All such taxes shall be for the Buyer’s account.
