Terms and Conditions of Sale

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

All sales transactions between Image Industries Inc. of 1515 Desoto Ave., Clarksdale, MS 38614>, (hereinafter referred to as “we” or “our”) and our customer (hereinafter referred to as “Buyer”) are expressly subject to these terms and conditions (“Terms”) unless otherwise stated. Modifications or additions will be recognized only if in writing by an authorized representative of Image Industries or a representative legally designated by us. If the provisions of the Buyer’s Purchase Order (“Order”) or other documents differ from these Terms, then those differences are expressly rejected. Our failure to object to any terms and conditions contained in any purchase order or other document from you will neither be construed as our acceptance of such terms and conditions, or a waiver of these Terms.

As used herein, the term “Contract” shall mean any Quotation, Purchase Order, Order Confirmation, or other document, in whatever written form, that represents the parties’ agreement concerning the purchase and sale of products from us.

In the event of a conflict, a Quotation takes precedence over these Terms, and a written contract covering the same subject matter signed by both parties takes precedence over both. If one or more of these Terms are held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining Terms will be unimpaired.

2. QUOTATIONS

Our formal Quotations note the length of time they are valid; otherwise, any Quotation that does not explicitly state this timeframe automatically expires 15 calendar days from the date of issue. However, if the Buyer requests an extension, we will review and notify Buyer in writing whether and an extension of the Quotation is acceptable, and if so, for what term.

3. ORDER ACCEPTANCE

All Orders are subject to our acceptance. Any changes Buyer may propose to the specifications, quantities, method of shipment, schedule or place of delivery of products must be provided to us in writing and may be accepted by us at our discretion.

We will issue a Sales Order Confirmation after receiving, at minimum, the following information from the Buyer:

1) Image Industries’ Credit Application completed and signed;
2) Written Order authorization consistent with our Quotation(s).

Upon receipt and approval of both, we will issue a Sales Order Confirmation to confirm the following terms of Buyer’s Order, including, at minimum, part number(s); part revision(s); order quantities; anticipated shipping or delivery dates; shipping method; and approved credit terms.

The Buyer’s Order is considered firm, and any changes thereafter may be subject to modification or cancellation fees per Section 6.

4. TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES

Unless otherwise noted, our quoted and invoiced prices do not include any taxes, duties, levies or other government feeds that may apply to Buyer’s Order. If they apply, it will be Buyer’s responsibility to pay them. Unless Buyer has furnished us with a valid tax exemption certificate prior to shipment, the amount of any such tax will be added to each applicable invoice and will be paid by the Buyer.

5. TERMS OF PAYMENT

A. Purchases by Credit Cards
We offer major credit cards, including American Express®, MasterCard®, and VISA®, as a form of payment. All credit card transactions are subject to a 4% credit card fee.
B. Purchases with Approved Credit Terms

Buyer may request credit terms from us if their corporate headquarters is located within the United States. If interested, Buyer must complete, sign and return our Credit Application prior to, or along with, receipt of the initial Purchase Order. Credit terms are normally provided to organizations with at least three acceptable Credit References and acceptable credit agency ratings. Please allow 48 hours for this Credit Application to be processed. The acceptance of any credit terms is based entirely on our discretion and may be changed at any time without prior written notification. If we deem the financial condition of the Buyer, or otherwise that the continuance or production or shipment on the terms specified is not justified, we may require partial or full payment in advance.Unless otherwise approved by us in writing, invoices shall be paid in U.S. dollars within 30 days from the invoice date. Each order is a separate transaction, and you may not set-off payments from one order against another. If Buyer is late in making payment, without affecting our other rights, we may suspend delivery or cancel the order or Contract, reject Buyer’s future orders, and charge a late-payment charge, from the due date until paid, at the rate of 1% per month (12% per year) or, if less, the maximum amount allowed by law.

Buyer shall pay all of our costs, charges and expenses, including court costs and attorneys’ fees, relating to Buyer’s obligations, payment and/or litigation, negotiation or transaction in which Buyer causes Image Industries to become concerned or involved.

The parties agree the Circuit Courts of Illinois shall have jurisdiction over any dispute, and the parties expressly waive any objection to the Circuit Courts of Illinois asserting jurisdiction over them.

6. ORDER MODIFICATION OR CANCELLATION

An Order may not be modified or canceled by the Buyer without our written acceptance.

In the event we have any reason to believe Buyer is unwilling or unable to pay, we reserve the right to request immediate assurance of payment with proof in the form satisfactory to us or we may cancel the Buyer’s order.

In the event of a cancellation of an Order by either party, for any reason except product non-conformity (Section 10), the Buyer shall pay us the costs and expenses including, but not limited to, material purchased, work in progress, engineering time, programming and set-up time, subcontractor costs and any other costs incurred by the company prior to receipt of notice of any such cancellation, plus our usual rate of profit for similar work.
