Terms and Conditions of Sale for Photonis Defesne, Inc.

[LEGACY PAGE]

Any sale by PHOTONIS DEFENSE, Inc. or other entity indicated on the reverse side hereof or attachment hereto as the seller (hereinafter referred to as “PHOTONIS”) is expressly made conditional on the assent of the customer (hereinafter “Buyer”) to these Terms and Conditions of Sale. Buyer’s taking delivery of any part of products/services sold shall constitute such assent and a waiver of all terms and conditions in its purchase order or similar document which are different from or additional to those set forth herein.

1. Prices and terms of payment

1.1 Unless otherwise specified by PHOTONIS in writing, prices and terms of payment shall be those set forth in the applicable Price Schedule. PHOTONIS reserves the right to change or withdraw prices for the products or services it offers for sale without prior notice. If PHOTONIS’s price for any product or service is increased, the price in effect prior to the increase will apply to orders received prior to the effective date of the increase and shipped within a period of 30 days after the effective date of increase. Partial shipments or performance made within this period will not obligate PHOTONIS to make further shipments or performance at these prices after the expiration of the 30-day period.

1.2 Prices are in United States dollars payable in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA, unless otherwise specified.
1.3 Unless otherwise specified by PHOTONIS in writing, all taxes and other charges imposed by federal, state, local or foreign governments on the manufacture, sale, shipment, import, export or use of the products or services shall be added to the price and billed to and paid by Buyer. Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless PHOTONIS from and against all liabilities for such taxes or charges and attorneys’ fees or costs incurred by PHOTONIS in connection therewith.

2. Acceptance, minimum order release

Any quotation or proposal is subject to change or cancellation by PHOTONIS at any time without notice and in any event expires 30 days from its date, unless otherwise indicated therein or extended in writing by PHOTONIS. PHOTONIS’s quotation or proposal does not constitute an offer by PHOTONIS, and any order or orders placed thereon are not binding on PHOTONIS until PHOTONIS’s acceptance in writing in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA has been sent to Buyer. The banking, negotiation, endorsement or other use of Buyer’s down payment, if any, shall not constitute acceptance by PHOTONIS. THE MINIMUM ORDER AND SHIPPING RELEASE FOR ALL PRODUCTS IS $250 IN BILLING VALUE PER ORDER.

3. Delivery

PHOTONIS shall have the right to make deliveries or perform services in installments. Partial shipments or performance will be billed as made and payments therefore are subject to the terms of payment referenced herein. All delivery indications or completion dates are estimated and are dependent in part upon prompt receipt of all necessary information to service an order. PHOTONIS reserves the right to allocate, in its sole discretion, inventories, production and services when such allocation becomes necessary. In no event will PHOTONIS be liable for any premium transportation, reprocurement, or other costs or losses incurred by Buyer as a result of PHOTONIS’s failure to deliver products in accordance with indicated delivery/performance schedules.

4. Patents and patent warranty

4.1 Buyer agrees that PHOTONIS has the right to defend, or at its option to settle, and PHOTONIS agrees, at its expense, to defend or at its option to settle, any claim, suit or proceeding brought against Buyer on the issue of infringement of any United States patent by any product, or any part thereof, supplied by PHOTONIS to Buyer hereunder. PHOTONIS agrees to pay, subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, any final judgment entered against Buyer on such issue in any suit or proceeding defended by PHOTONIS. Buyer agrees that PHOTONIS at its sole option shall be relieved of the foregoing obligations unless Buyer notifies PHOTONIS promptly in writing of any such claim, suit or proceeding, and at PHOTONIS’s expense, gives PHOTONIS proper and full information and assistance to settle and/or to defend any such claim, suit or proceeding. If the product, or any part thereof, furnished by PHOTONIS to Buyer becomes, or in the opinion of PHOTONIS may become, the subject of any claim, suit or proceeding for infringement of any United States patent, or in the event of an adjudication that such product or part infringes any United States patent, or if the use, lease or sale of such product or part is enjoined, PHOTONIS may, at its option and its expense: (1) procure for Buyer the right under such patent to use, lease or sell, as appropriate, such product or part, or (2) replace such product or part, or (3) modify such product or part, or (4) remove such product or part and refund the aggregate payments and transportation costs paid therefor by Buyer less a reasonable sum for use, damage and obsolescence. PHOTONIS shall have no liability for any infringement arising from: (i) the combination of such product or part with any other product or part whether or not furnished to Buyer by PHOTONIS, or (ii) the modification of such product or part unless such modification was made by PHOTONIS, or (iii) the use of such product or part in practicing any process, or (iv) the furnishing to Buyer of any information, data, service or application assistance. Buyer shall hold PHOTONIS harmless against any expense, judgment or loss for infringement of any United States patents or trademarks which results from PHOTONIS’s compliance with Buyer’s designs, specifications or instructions. PHOTONIS shall not be liable for any costs or expense incurred without PHOTONIS’s written authorization and in no event shall PHOTONIS’s total liability to Buyer under, or as a result of compliance with, the provisions of this paragraph exceed the aggregate sum paid to PHOTONIS by Buyer for the allegedly infringing product or part, exclusive of any refund under option (4) above. The foregoing states the entire warranty by PHOTONIS, and the exclusive remedy of Buyer, with respect to any alleged patent infringement by such product or part.
