time of delivery, an agent or employee of the Buyer will be
available who is authorized and able to receive the shipping
documents, to direct the vehicle to the unloading site, and to sign
the bill of lading.
If Buyer fails to fulfill these obligations, Seller shall be
entitled to act in its sole discretion, on the Buyer’s account and at
the Buyer’s risk without the Buyer being able to claim damages.
If the Buyer, its agent, or a third party assigned by the Buyer
collects the Goods from Seller, said party collecting the Goods
shall solely be responsible for the Goods’ safe and secure loading
and transport. Said party shall solely be responsible for
compliance with statutory regulations regarding permissible
maximum weight and proper load securing. If Goods are picked
up by vehicles operating on Buyer’s behalf, the risk inherent in
the Goods and their transport shall pass to Buyer at the time the
products leave Seller’s loading facilities. Seller reserves the right

Agreement. If Buyer collects and transports the Goods, Buyer
waives all claims against Seller associated with the transport of
the Goods.
15. Examination of Goods and Claims.
Buyer shall make an
examination as to quantity and quality of any Goods delivered
hereunder immediately upon receipt and failure of Buyer to give
notice of any claims within 3 days after receipt of such Goods

Buyer of all claims with respect thereto. Any claim for failure of
performance or breach of the Agreement relating to the delivery
of the Goods, must be made on written notice to Seller within 10
days to cure such performance failure or breach. Seller shall be
permitted to replace or refund any Goods, at its discretion. No
claim of any kind, whether as to Goods delivered or for non-
delivery of Goods, shall be greater in amount than the purchase
price of the Goods in respect of which such claim is made.

No Goods will be
accepted for credit when returned without written permission

or accept and refund, or sell and charge difference. A minimum
restocking fee of 10% will apply to orders cancelled after
production but before shipment.

Buyer shall have no right of
deduction or set off against sums due Seller for Goods which have
either been delivered or which Seller has undertaken to deliver.

obligations under this Agreement; Buyer becomes insolvent;
proceedings are instituted by or against Buyer under any federal
or state bankruptcy of insolvency laws; Buyer ceases operations;
or as otherwise provided in this Agreement.
19. Waiver and Severability.
This Agreement shall be deemed
to be separable. If any part thereof is held to be invalid for any
reason, the other terms and conditions hereunder shall remain in
full force and effect. Seller’s waiver of any breach, or failure to
enforce any of this Agreement, shall not be deemed to affect, limit
or waive Seller’s right thereafter to require compliance with this
Agreement.
20. Indemnification.
Buyer agrees to save, defend and hold
Seller harmless from any claims, demands, liabilities, expenses
or judgments arising in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, out

Seller. This indemnification shall include all costs, attorney’s fees
and other expenses paid or incurred by or imposed upon Seller in
connection with the defense of any such claim.

laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of
interest laws. Buyer and Seller hereby submit to the exclusive

of competent jurisdiction located in Buffalo, New York, and both
parties hereby waive any objections to the jurisdiction of such
court and waive any defense based upon inconvenient forum.

by Buyer, and if thereafter payment is collected in whole or in part
